UGR to lead H2020 project exploring causes of anorexia and bulimia
The University of Granada will coordinate a pioneering new H2020 project called CogniTastED, which aims to shed light on how what we think about certain types of food can diminish or enhance their flavour. It will explore how this phenomenon can lead to extreme loss of appetite and weight, as well as to compulsive eating habits, among those suffering from eating disorders.
​
A fundamental objective of the project is to tackle unhealthy eating habits such as extreme dieting and prolonged fasting, as well as growing incidence rates of eating disorders, especially among women.
​
Through preclinical studies on humans and on animal models, the researchers aim to devise new preventative strategies, optimize psychotherapeutic and pharmacological interventions, and identify behavioural indicators for the early diagnosis of eating disorders.
