About this Event
<h4>Presented by Marian Tanofsky-Kraff, PhD</h4>

Uniformed Services University

Marian Tanofsky-Kraff, PhD, is a professor and vice chair of research in the Department of Medical and Clinical Psychology and a professor of medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences. She is also a research collaborator in the section on growth and obesity at the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.


<h4>About This Event</h4>

This lecture will discuss childhood obesity and when to address concerns. It will also cover the relevance of behavioral phenotyping in overweight or obese children and adolescents, and those who are at risk for complicated weight gain. Next, the talk will discuss the body of research on pediatric “loss of control” eating and interventional approaches. The lecture will conclude with a hypothesis-generating proposal for more precise phenotyping and intervention.

<h4>Learning Objectives</h4>
  • Assess whether intervention is required and what type of approach may be effective for preventing obesity and eating disorders
  • Incorporate research of behavioral phenotypes when working with children in larger bodies
  • Differentiate the types of behaviors that predict eating disorders and increased weight gain
