Dr Rachel F Rodgers
IAS Spotlight: Body Image, Eating Problems & Health
Northeastern University
Dr Rodgers’ interests are in the area of body image, disordered eating and adolescent/young adult psychopathology, in particular focusing on sociocultural influences on body image and eating concerns.
Her research aims both to examine socio-cultural determinants of health-related behaviours but also to generate research which may inform public policy. She is the author of over 300 journal articles and book chapters.
During their IAS Fellowship, Dr Rodgers will be collaborating with Dr Hannah White from the School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences.
