Abstract

NEW PROGRAMME LEADS AND CHAIRS Dr Rachel Bryant-Waugh and Dr Ian Frampton have decided to step down from their role of Programme Lead and Chair for LEDC. We thank them for their tireless work and commitment to making the eating disorders conferences so successful. We are delighted to be taking over as Programme Leads for LEDC 2021 and beyond, and we are working with our Programme Committee to ensure a high quality, relevant and multidisciplinary programme that will help you to develop and enhance your clinical practice and research. The theme for this LEDC is: -Improving acess to care and treatment flexibility in a challenging world-, where experts will examine the impact of the Covid crisis; explore how to optimise detection of eating disorders and how to ease the transition between adolescence and adulthood; and investigate the evidence that links the gut and the brain.

The -Call for papers- is now open, so submit your abstract to be in with a chance of presenting a short paper or poster of your research or clinical study, or an interactive clinical workshop session.
