The CARE Lab
Center for the Advancement of Research on Eating Behaviors (CARE)
The CARE Lab is directed by Dr. Kelsie Forbush in the Department of Psychology at the University of Kansas. CARE conducts innovative and transformative research to better identify persons with eating-disorder issues for early screening, intervention, and treatment progress monitoring. Our mission is to improve the way eating disorders are assessed, diagnosed, and treated through cutting edge methods and research.

Kinley Trust, National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA), Healthy Weight Research Network, National Institute of Health, and University of Kansas (KU) New Faculty General Research Fund and Strategic Initiatives Grant.
