Eating Disorders Summer Research Fellowship

The summer research fellowship program at the Eating Disorder Clinical and Research Program (EDCRP) has been designed to stimulate interest in eating disorders research and train young investigators in the field.

In 1997, the Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program (EDCRP) established a summer fellowship program to stimulate interest in eating disorders research and train young investigators in the field. The EDCRP provides annual funding for summer research fellowships with the support of Matina S. Horner, PhD, and the Lawrence J. and Anne Rubenstein Charitable Foundation. Matina S. Horner, PhD has sponsored over 50 undergraduate and graduate students.

In 2013, we were fortunate to receive an award from the Rubenstein Foundation in support of our summer research fellowships. During their eight weeks at the EDCRP, fellows receive supervision and mentoring as they conduct independent research projects, participate in our research activities and meet weekly with our staff for discussion sessions on research methodologies in the field of eating disorders.
