An Dang is a combined master of clinical psychology and PhD student. Her research focuses on understanding the clinical validity of eating disorder severity ratings to guide clinical practice and policies (e.g., treatment access or funding).

Great quality research and exciting work being presented at the #BIRD2021 conference today. Honoured to be a part of this with a poster presenting our conceptual model on the relationship between death anxiety and disordered eating. Would love to hear your thoughts on it 🤗💬
