A Florida State University psychologist well known for her translational research on eating disorders has been selected for membership in the Academy of Science, Engineering and Medicine of Florida.

Pamela Keel, a Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Psychology, will be inducted to the academy in November in recognition of her work in identifying and characterizing purging disorder — a life-threatening illness impacting approximately 1 in 50 women worldwide — and advancing research in the epidemiology, etiology, and treatment of the eating disorder.
