Closer to home than last year’s meeting in Australia, the city of Chicago, Illinois will host the 22nd annual meeting of the Eating Disorders Research Society. From September 6th-8th, the Sheraton Grand Chicago will be humming with collaborators, students, teachers, researchers –scientist/clinicians who study and treat eating disorders. Ideas will be exchanged, participants will teach, learn, and of course, socialize.  Please say hello if you are there!
