Back to the office!
During the summer and vacation time, it was a bit quiet around the news in our working group. But of course we were still busy conducting studies, writing proposals and papers, supervising and motivating PhD students and doing all the other nice scientific tasks.
Now our team is complete again 🙂 Here you can see a part of it!
With pleasure we would like to draw your attention to two papers that were published over the summer:
Goldschmidt, A. B., Jeong, K., Yu, L., Egbert, A. H., Schmidt, R., & Hilbert, A. (2024). Executive functioning and treatment outcome among adolescents undergoing cognitive-behavioral therapy for binge-eating disorder. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 10.1111/jcpp.14031. Advance online publication. https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.14031
Kaden, J., Hübner, C., Mansfeld, T., Sander, J., Seyfried, F., Kaiser, S., Dietrich, A., & Hilbert, A. (2024).

German Psychotherapy Congress (DPK)!
Today we attended the third German Psychotherapy Congress (Deutscher Psychotherapie Kongress, DPK) in Berlin to present 2 talks. In a symposium on a transdiagnostic update on eating disorders, led by Anja Hilbert and Andrea Hartmann, Danielle presented her findings of a dynamic structural equation model on the mechanisms in cognitive behavioral therapy for adults with binge-eating disorder. Ricarda showed us results on family atmosphere and parental psychopathology in restrictive feeding and eating disorders. We had the pleasure of experiencing a really broad and exciting spectrum of topics and an interested audience. Thank you very much.
(Is Die Mannschaft also going to Berlin on July 14 for the European Football Championship final? We are keeping our fingers crossed...).

Panometer - Manometer!
We are still impressed by our trip to the Leipzig Panometer today to visit Yadegar Asisi's exhibition "The Cathedral of Monet". It exceeded our expectations and will certainly leave a lasting impression. A great trip, also afterwards to the Hotel Seeblick.

We organize our team meetings in person and online - completely flexible. These screen views are almost art, aren't they?

News overload!
Over the last few weeks, we have been struggling with our news website as it has been unable to keep up with the number of posts we have been publishing. Our last posts unfortunately vanished... But from now on we will be posting regularly for you again. Take a look!

Award for the PRAC study!
Anja and her team have been awarded the Lilly Germany Foundation's Quality of Life Prize for their research. The prize, worth a total of 10,000 euros, was awarded on April 26 in Bad Homburg for their work in quality of life research. Anja received the award for the PRAC study investigating psychosocial factors that influence the success of obesity surgery.
We are very proud of this award and would like to take this opportunity to thank all cooperation partners involved and, of course, all participants (now over 1000).
