EDIFY Launch Event in Collaboration with the FREED and Academic Health Sciences Networks

13/01/22

In January 2022, we held a full-day online event to celebrate the launch of EDIFY. Co-hosted with the FREED and Academic Health Sciences networks, the event explored how we could revolutionise early intervention for eating disorders. The day featured exclusive insights into research and practice developments in the field, such as a preview of the progress of the FREED (First Episode Rapid Early Intervention for Eating Disorders) national roll out and keynote talks from international investigators at the forefront of innovative early intervention research, as well as a comprehensive overview of the EDIFY project.
