CEDI
Karolinska Institutet Centre for Eating Disorders Innovation
CEDI is European epicenter for eating disorders research and training.
Dr. Bulik is the founder and director of the Karolinska Institutet Centre for Eating Disorders Innovation (CEDI). Funded by the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskaprådet), our goal is to push the boundaries of research in the area of eating disorders by engaging scientists from a variety of disciplines to rapidly accelerate our understanding of the causes of and treatments for eating disorders.
CEDI researchers are dedicated to applying novel and emerging methodologies and technologies to elucidate causal mechanisms underlying eating disorders. Our ultimate goal is to rigorously apply findings from genetic, biological, and environmental risk investigations to refine and personalize detection, prevention, and treatment of eating disorders.
At CEDI, we are dedicated to mentorship of trainees at all levels to cultivate the next generation of eating disorders scientists. From neuroscience to clinical research, our faculty and global collaborators are dedicated to our education mission. In addition, we are passionate about dissemination of science. Through public lectures, invited lectures, publications, media, and social media, we will translate often complex scientific results into readily understandable concepts for the public.
Our singular goal is to rapidly advance our understanding of eating disorders. By engaging scientists from a variety of disciplines and examining eating disorders through new lenses, we aim to build a comprehensive understanding of the role that both genetics and environment play in eating disorders risk and maintenance.
