OUR AIM

The ESTRA study aims to better understand what causes eating disorders in young adults, including biological, psychological and social factors.  The data collected in this study will enable researchers to identify risk factors, investigate how eating disorder symptoms change over time and how they are associated with other mental health problems. The results obtained from this study will inform future prevention and treatment strategies.
