    Greetings!

    Looking to contribute to a research project? Gain valuable research experience reading and coding articles for an important global eating disorder review?

    The Eating Disorder Global Prevalence Review project aims to synthesize existing evidence on the prevalence and incidence of eating disorder diagnoses and disordered eating behaviors in different populations (by gender, race/ethnicity, age group, etc.) to better ascertain the range of frequencies of eating disorders in the different populations so that we can:

    a) cite the review for advocacy work, grant proposals, etc. and
    b) identify gaps in the existing literature

    Key Investigators: Millie Plotkin, Alexis Duncan, Kendrin Sonneville, Katie Loth, and Carly Pacanowski.

    We are soliciting volunteers to code articles after being trained using online directions/working with other research assistants to ensure reliability. 

    Interested? Questions? please reach out to Millie Plotkin at Millie.Plotkin@ercpathlight.com
