X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Title:</strong> Biopsychosocial Pr
 ocesses Underlying Eating Disorders<br /><strong>Abstract:</strong> Eating 
 disorders are serious psychiatric illnesses that contribute to functional i
 mpairment\, medical complications\, and elevated mortality. An incomplete u
 nderstanding of the pathophysiology of these disorders has limited progress
  in the development of effective treatments. Thus\, the overarching goal of
  my research is to understand core processes underlying eating disorder psy
 chopathology that ultimately can inform interventions and improve treatment
  outcomes. My presentation will focus on some of my research related to ide
 ntifying psychological and biological factors associated with Bulimia Nervo
 sa (BN)\, an eating disorder characterized by binge eating (i.e.\, consumpt
 ion of a large amount of food and feeling out of control while eating) and 
 compensatory behaviors (e.g.\, self-induced vomiting\, laxative misuse\, fa
 sting\, excessive exercise). In particular\, weight suppression\, defined a
 s the difference between one’s highest previous and current weight\, has em
 erged as a robust risk factor for the onset and maintenance of BN\; however
 \, no studies had examined the links underlying this association. I will pr
 ovide evidence for several psychobiological models of BN and discuss their 
 clinical utility. Finally\, I will discuss directions for future research.<
