Understanding ARFID and its genetic and environmental causes

About this event

In this webinar, Dr Nadia Micali and Dr Lisa Dinkler will first review what ARFID is and who it affects. They will then discuss what is currently known about the causes of ARFID and why genomic studies are important to help us develop better treatments for ARFID. Lastly, they will present the ongoing study ARFID-GEN, which focuses on identifying the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to the development of ARFID.
