Brief Summary: UK Eating Disorder services are facing unprecedented demand with effective service delivery hampered by inadequate resources fragmented services and variable care pathways Individuals with eating disorders families and clinicians all agree on the critical need to improve care pathways and treatment leading to better outcomes

Eating disorders are serious complex conditions influenced by a blend of biological psychological and environmental factors The approach of this project is grounded in the biopsychosocial model Recently anorexia research confirms a genetic component with biological metabolic and psychological mechanisms at play Further biological research across eating disorders could allow a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying eating disorder development and better more personalised treatments

This project will test the feasibility of establishing a UK-wide NHS research network spanning child and adult eating disorder services to enable a step change in the ability to conduct eating disorder research It will help address fragmentation and facilitate novel biological psychological and social research collaborations The data the investigators gather will be open to all researchers for data analyses and the collaborations established will form a collaborative network to enable future clinical trials experimental medicine and psychology

The study will be conducted at child and adult eating disorder services who opt to join the Network Participants will be patients receiving treatment for an eating disorder at one of the participating services and their parentsguardians if applicable

Participants will complete questionnaires and have blood and other physical tests as specified in the EDCRN dataset The study will last until 29th October 2026 the end of the current funding period andor when a participant is discharged from treatment whichever is sooner For participants discharged before the study ends there will be an opportunity for patients to complete optional follow-up questionnaires on a periodic basis
