Meet the Body Image Research Network (BIRN)
Our Directors
Dr Ciara Mahon
BIRN co-founder
"My colleagues and I at University College Dublin (including, Associate Prof. Amanda Fitzgerald, Youth Mental Health Lab and Assistant Prof. Sarah Cooney, Body Cognition Lab) have recognised a general dearth of research and a lack in joined up thinking on the topic of body image in Ireland. Our vision is to establish UCD as a centre of excellence for body image research in Ireland and to enhance the quality of research outputs on body image in Ireland."
