Cause Of Anorexia Linked To Brain Circuitry

Posted Jul 24 2009 10:03pm
Now this is a headline I would like to see more often (take note, New York Times):

Cause Of Anorexia Linked To Brain Circuitry

No psychobabble. No blaming of sufferers, parents, and society. No improper usage of the word "control."

Includes the latest science. Includes quotes from researchers. Includes optimism.

Sure, it's just a press release, but it's a big step in the right direction. Now we just need to persuade more journalists to cover these types of stories.

(And a not-so-subtle hint: the abstract of the paper is here. If anyone can find a full text version and wouldn't mind passing it along, I would be forever grateful. Thanks!)
