Biography
My research aims to understand the relationship between human behaviour and health, focusing on the complex mechanisms influencing eating behaviour and health outcomes. There are two research areas that I am currently focused on: (i) the psychological, physiological, and environmental factors contributing to disordered eating behaviour, such as overeating and obesity, and eating disorders. (ii) Exploring the connections between diet, lifestyle, and mental health and sleep. My aim is to understand how diet influences cognitive and emotional impairments in the context of conditions like anxiety and depression, and further explore how non-pharmacological interventions, specifically dietary approaches, can alleviate these impairments and promote overall health and wellbeing.
