Obesity and Adverse Childhood Experiences

Substantial evidence documents an association between childhood trauma and the development of obesity across the life course. This session will describe new studies identifying behavioral, neuroanatomical, and molecular adaptations mediating the elevated risk of obesity in individuals exposed to early-life trauma. A better understanding of the early brain responses to trauma may contribute to innovative preventative, curative, and disease-modifying approaches to obesity.
