STRIPED’s Ariel Beccia speaks out in Theresa Gaffney’s new STAT piece on how eating disorder research is being gutted under the Trump admin. $2.7M in NIH grants already cut. Read more: www.statnews.com/2025/06/03/e... @hsph.harvard.edu @albeccia.bsky.social @statnews.com

Eating disorder research defunded despite MAHA focus on chronic conditions

Experts on eating disorders like anorexia worry that research funding cuts mean patients won't get the care they need.

Eating disorders are chronic diseases. But instead of focusing on these- MAHA is terminating funding. 1 in 5 kids have an ED. Eating disorder research has always been underfunded — about $55 million in NIH grants went to eating disorder research in 2023 www.statnews.com/2025/06/03/e...

eating disorder research was already so severely underfunded - 7 terminated grants is devastating to our field!

Stand Up for Science!@standupforscience.net · last yr.

Eating disorders are among the deadliest mental health conditions & they often become chronic. Yet Trump’s HHS is cutting eating disorder research & the MAHA report doesn’t mention them. This isn’t just suppressing science - it’s a decision that will cost lives. www.statnews.com/2025/06/03/e...

They made it really easy. Do it!

Heads up! APA is urging anyone who cares about health and science to let their reps/senators know now that they should oppose the admin's murder budget. Easy to do here: www.votervoice.net/Shares/BAAAA... APA is plugged in. If they say NOW, listen! #StandUpForScience

Please do this RIGHT NOW, takes 30 seconds if that!
