Dear individuals with gluten-related disorders, dietitians, social workers, nurses, and physicians,

Please join us for our All Things Celiac Webinar on April 26th from 12:30-1:30pm ET.

"Unbalanced Eating: The Spectrum of Eating Disorders with Gluten-Related Conditions"

Join the Harvard Medical School Celiac Research Program and the National Celiac Association for the second webinar in our Spring 2023 "Ask the Experts" series. Speakers will present on selected topics for 60 minutes, followed by 15 minutes for Q&A, on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, from 1- 2:15 pm ET.

Research shows that disordered eating patterns are more common in people with gluten-related conditions. Three experts in the field will present current findings and guidance to address challenges when the conditions co-occur. Elana Bern, MD, MPH, co-director of the Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Clinic at Boston Children's Hospital, will cover screening, diagnosis, and medical care of eating disordered behavior, including ARFID, in pediatrics and adults with gluten-related disorders. Rose-Marie Satherley, PhD, a lecturer in Clinical Psychology at the University of Surrey in England, conducts research into the intersection between dietary-controlled conditions and disordered eating. Registered dietitian nutritionist Janelle Smith, MS, RDN, CEDS, from the UCLA Division of Digestive Diseases, will share her expertise in nutrition for restrictive eating patterns in patients with digestive disorders. Melinda Dennis, MS, RD, LDN, nutrition coordinator at the Celiac Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, will serve as moderator.

Lee Graham, executive director of the National Celiac Association, will introduce the webinar. A Q&A session will follow the presentations; please submit general questions below or during the webinar on the Zoom platform.
