About this listen

Professor Dasha Nicholls leads the Child and Adolescent Mental Health research team in the Division of Psychiatry at Imperial College London. Her team’s research improves understanding of and interventions for children and young people with eating disorders and those living at higher weight.


This episode stands out as a special one to me, given the career path that Professor Nicholls has forged - rooted in academic rigour and co-production.


In this episode, we discuss:

  1. The competing messages from the obesity epidemic and the mental health epidemic
  2. Emotional and behavioural regulation as a transdiagnostic factor in mental health
  3. Technology’s ability to recognise variations in mood and tailor behavioural science techniques to improve self-care
