We take great pleasure in inviting you to join us for Eating Disorders 2011, the 10th London International Eating Disorders Conference. Each of the past nine conferences exceeded our expectations in terms of quality of presentations and numbers attending. For Eating Disorders 2009 we had more than 650 participants from all over the world and we are understandably proud of just how international the meeting has become.

We are confident that Eating Disorders 2011 will be even more exciting and are delighted that so many distinguished clinicians and researchers will be joining the faculty.

As usual the very latest ideas and research findings will be presented by leaders in the field. We are delighted that our keynote speaker will be Prof Simon Baron-Cohen, internationally renowned for his work on the male and female brains. In addition, there will be plenary sessions on men and eating disorders, the therapeutic alliance, coping and resilience, as well as clinical workshops, short paper sessions and posters.

Once again the conference will be held at one of London’s premier academic institutions, The Institute of Education, University of London. Situated in the heart of London’s sightseeing and shopping districts with the British Museum a few paces away and close proximity to all mainline connections, it will allow you to make the most of your visit to London whilst at the conference. As always we will be hosting social gatherings on the first and second nights of the conference. Get more information here.

We look forward to offering you our personal welcome to London in March 2011.

Very warm regards

Prof. Bryan Lask
Dr Rachel Bryant-Waugh
