Biografi
Nadia Micali is Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Copenhagen and head of the Center for Eating and Feeding Disorders Research in the Capital Region of Denmark. Her research focuses on the causes, development and long-term consequences of eating disorders across the life course.
Micali’s work combines clinical studies with large-scale population and register-based data to understand risk factors, early trajectories and outcomes of conditions such as anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder. She is particularly interested in how biological, psychological and social factors interact in the development of eating disorders, and how these conditions affect both physical and mental health over time.
Her research contributes to improved prevention, early identification and treatment strategies and is widely published in international peer-reviewed journals.
