WAY TO GO @oclancy.bsky.social !!!!

I could not be more proud of my supervisees, Rachel and Kristin, for penning this incredible op-ed piece about increasing Auburn University's funding of the Auburn Eating Disorders Clinic: aub.ie/oyfdWL. Give it a read, it is 🔥🔥🔥

REDS laber @carterjillian.bsky.social presented her work at SEPA in NOLA this past week!

When employees experience weight discrimination, it doesn’t just affect outcomes, it also affects whether they feel heard and taken seriously. New research from AU highlights emotion invalidation as a key mechanism linking stigma to workplace harm. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Me at 8. Years later, my dream of opening an eating disorders clinic came true. At the AEDC, we are expanding access to care & training the next generation of therapists. We have 1 MORE DAY to reach our fundraising goal. If you’re able to support/share, it truly makes a difference: aub.ie/26TGDAEDC

The Auburn Eating Disorders Clinic provides low-cost, evidence-based care while training future clinical psychologists. Demand remains high, with a 3+ month waitlist. Support expands access to care & training the next generation: aub.ie/26TGDAEDC

We’re excited to see this feature on our low-cost eating disorders clinic. The creation of this clinic reflects our commitment to increasing access to care for students and the broader community. Take a look: www.theplainsman.com/article/2026... More soon with Giving Day on March 25.

We are getting excited for #SRS2026! Come check us out!

In case you didn't know, I have the best lab ever. Here they are surprising me with cake pops. I'm so thankful to get to work with them every day, including my birthday. Thank you, REDS lab!

First Body Advocacy Movement (BAM) group of the semester was a great success thanks to @laurenpictor.bsky.social's leadership!

HUGE congrats to @laurenharris.bsky.social on submitting her K23, "Glycemic variability and interoceptive attention as proximal predictors of eating disorder symptoms in Anorexia Nervosa and Atypical Anorexia"!!!

Wow. No evidence of improved outcomes for the treatment of bulimia or binge eating disorder over the past FOUR decades. We must do better. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

In better news: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u... Although I wish this had happened sooner, I'm beyond grateful the protection is finally there.

If risk is similar across ‘typical’ and ‘atypical’ anorexia, then language matters. Time to shift away from labels that imply lesser severity. Congrats @laurenharris.bsky.social on this impactful paper! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Excited to have the military adaptation of our interoception intervention featured in the latest APA Monitor. Check it out here (scroll to the bottom :): www.apa.org/monitor/2025...

Looks like we're going to The Hague! Congrats to REDS Labers on their acceptances for #ICED2026! @laurenharris.bsky.social @laurenpictor.bsky.social @carterjillian.bsky.social @oclancy.bsky.social

PTSD disproportionately affects service members. In an RCT, RISE—an interoception-based training—reduced PTSD symptoms indirectly by increasing acceptance of uncomfortable internal sensations.

Way to go, all!

Way to go @laurenpictor.bsky.social !

Yay for open science! Check out our recently published protocol paper for REDS Lab and @uofleatlab.bsky.social's R01, which is investigating predictors of self-injurious thoughts and behaviors in anorexia spectrum disorders.

Check out our new article on ARFID that was specifically written for kids!

Congratulations to @taylorbstanley.bsky.social on publishing her dissertation! This study identified four distinct user profiles based on use patterns and how cannabis affects appetite/food reward.

So great to have these awesome virtual visitors from @uofleatlab.bsky.social, Dr. Rachel Torres and @kefancathywu.bsky.social, and hear awesome #abct2025 practice talks from @cmcurran410.bsky.social and @rachelfrietchen.bsky.social

What's the secret to success in academia? 10% good ideas + 90% perseverance through all the rejections!

We are so excited to be presenting at #ABCT2025. We hope to see you there!

Congratulations to @oclancy.bsky.social for successfully proposing her dissertation! We can't wait to see the results!

We are so grateful to our participants for helping us with this important work!

Congrats to @laurenpictor.bsky.social for successfully defending her master's thesis! Stay tuned for the results!

We're very excited about this new implementation of our interoceptive awareness training!

So excited about this study and its implications for treating co-occurring disordered eating and suicidality! @laurenharris.bsky.social

Congrats to Reza Sahlan on his new publication! "Suicidal ideation consistently predicted all ED symptoms, including ARFID." dx.doi.org/10.1111/sltb...

"These findings support acceptance of internal sensations asa key mechanism of change for improving PTSD. Further, the results provide preliminary evidence for RISE as a viable PTSD treatment supplement for Service Members"

Hot off the press! @rachelfrietchen.bsky.social found that among a sample of women receiving residential treatment for eating disorders, pain catastrophizing positively related to suicidal ideation: doi.org/10.1080/1064...
