Food is necessary to support life. And yet for some people, eating becomes an overwhelming experience that provokes fear, and interrupts daily living. Dr. Khalsa’s talk will present an overview of how the brain is involved in several different types of eating disorders, and will describe new neuroscience-based treatments for these disorders that have emerged in recent years. The information will be presented for a non-scientist audience and should be of interest for individuals affected by eating disorders, family members, and those generally fascinated by the brain.
