DOI: 10.1016/j.appet.2006.05.015The BC Eating Disorders Research Excellence Cluster brings together knowledge users, including clinicians, researchers, decision-makers, and those with lived/living experience. Goals of the cluster are to create opportunities for collaboration, and to share and mobilize knowledge about eating disorders. For more information about the cluster, and to check out the work of cluster members, please visit: edcluster.ubc.ca
New eating disorders presentations surged during the COVID-19 pandemic, intensified by challenges with clinician availability and training in eating disorders. To address the workforce challenge, our team is studying the roll-out of a Provincial Training Hub, which will build capacity in clinicians treating children and youth with eating disorders in British Columbia and the Yukon. We will demonstrate the impact of training and consultation in evidence-based approaches for pediatric eating disorders, improve cultural responsiveness in training, and develop a strategy for national training. Our goal is to improve clinician well-being, and availability of quality evidence-based care for pediatric eating disorders.
It is critical to ensure that youth affected by an eating disorder have access to the right treatment at the right time. Yet, current guidelines do not yet guide what treatment options might be the best fit for youth and their family. We are studying what predicts better treatment outcomes in youth with eating disorders. One of our goals is to understand how the readiness and engagement of family/caregivers as compared to the readiness/engagement of youth can help guide which treatment options may be the best fit.
Every day, our researchers work towards breakthroughs to transform the lives of kids in BC and around the world. Learn about our latest innovations and advancements in child health.
Researchers from several institutions across the country, including BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute (BCCHR), are calling for a national surveillance strategy on eating disorders. A new pan-Canadian analysis showed a sharp increase in the cost of eating disorders in children and youth, comparing the periods before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study resulted from…
During National Volunteer Week, we celebrate the contributions of Canada’s millions of volunteers: their actions, understanding and genuine concern for the world around them. BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute hosts undergraduate student volunteers as part of the INSPIRE program.
Congratulations to the BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute (BCCHR) investigators and their teams who were awarded funding through the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Operating Grant: Understanding and mitigating the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on children, youth and families in Canada.
At BC Children’s, we are making discoveries that save lives and transform health care for children in our province and around the world. Our research portfolio includes basic, clinical, population, and public health research.
