What We Do

Research

Cutting-Edge Studies

Our research initiatives focus on advancing our understanding of eating disorders and addiction through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates genetic research, psychology, and recovery science. By examining genetic markers, gene-environment interactions, and psychological factors, we uncover the complex biological and behavioral foundations of these conditions. This comprehensive approach not only enhances scientific knowledge but also supports the development of personalized treatments and effective recovery strategies.

Collaboration and Partnerships

Building Collaborative Networks

We believe that collaboration is key to advancing research and finding effective solutions. The CEDAR Lab actively partners with other research labs at Texas Tech University and at other academic institutions to foster an environment of knowledge sharing and joint problem-solving. Through these partnerships, we aim to create impactful research that improves treatments and promotes mental health awareness on a global scale.
