The Genetic Component with EDGI Research
This week, we're so excited to be joined by Gerome Breen, Professor of Psychiatric Genetics at King's College London and Chief Investigator of the UK Eating Disorders Genetics Initiative (EDGI-UK), to talk about a topic we both feel passionate about: the biology behind eating disorders.
We explore what this means exactly, and why understanding the genetic component matters. We also discuss protecting your recovery, what researchers at King's College London are trying to learn through EDGI UK, and how taking part in research could help develop better treatments in the future.
Topics covered:
How eating disorders are genetic disorders
The link between eating disorders and OCD
Protecting your recovery
The research King's College London are doing to understand eating disorders
Why genetics matter in eating disorder research
What you can do if you'd like to participate in the EDGI UK study
