Proud of this commentary I wrote with Megan Mikhail where we argue the next 50 years of eating disorder research must center equity & impact to actually make meaningful progress towards reducing the prevalence & progression of eating disorders. Open access:

Centering Impact and Equity in the Next 50 Years of Eating Disorder Research

Over the past 50 years, there has been a significant increase in research on eating disorders, which is encouraging and necessary given the substantial mortality, morbidity, and personal and societal...

Hi folks-we’re building a digital intervention in lab and would love to hear what platforms other folks have used. Please reach out, I’d love to hear what you have you tried, what worked, what didn’t, etc. Thanks in advance!

A lot of students in my undergrad psychological disorders course have an interest in emetophobia. Does anyone in my network have expertise in this and willingness to either speak to my class or share resources?

Endlessly proud of you

get students thinking dimensionally vs. categorically. I teach T/R at 10:20 ET in the spring and virtual lectures are welcome! If interested, please reply or DM me! Happy to trade a lecture on eating disorders.

Hi folks, I’m looking for guest lecturers for my undergrad intro to psychopathology course. I’m especially interested in experts in substance use, bipolar, borderline, autism/adhd, & dimensional approaches to diagnosis (like HiTOP). My goal is to de-stigmatize/demystify misunderstood disorders &…

To suggest we should yield even a little to Trump’s odious politics is unacceptable. Even if we did, it would never be enough.

Although these aren't new ideas, we're excited to bring them to a wider audience who likely have less familiarity with eating disorders for the journal's special issue on EDs! Many thanks to my colleagues, Kelly Klump & Alexandra Burt!

Blair Burnette @bburnettephd.bsky.social · Nov 24

Really thrilled to work with my new colleagues on this paper. In it, we argue that disadvantage has been largely ignored in research on eating disorder etiology & that this negligence has perpetuated & widened disparities. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Those who know me know that I'm a huge fan of intuitive eating - BUT, I'm also working to reconceptualize intuitive eating to acknowledge & integrate the ways it's inaccessible or unpractical for many. So, I'm thrilled I'll be presenting my proposed socioecological framework of IE at ICED 2024!
