Washington University in St. Louis (WU)

Dr. Fitzsimmons-Craft has established a programmatic line of research centering on the use of the Internet and technology for eating disorder prevention and treatment, screening for eating disorders in college and other populations, sociocultural etiological and maintenance factors for eating disorders, and eating disorder recovery. Ultimately, her work aims to disseminate evidence-based interventions from research to practice as well as extend treatments in ways that will reach the large number of people in need of care for eating disorders but who are not receiving services.
