Dr. Charles Swencionis and his students fondly call their research group the "Obesity Lab" where they focus their research efforts on understanding and adding to the current literature and theory on obesity, weight management, bariatric surgery, and general weight loss. The lab meets weekly to discuss and plan research proposals, projects, and analyses, while also participating in a journal club, rotating weekly to present interesting articles related to their research interests. The members of the lab also oversee the Weight Management Program at the Parnes Clinic. Currently, we are collaborating on and writing the manuscript for our textbook called The Psychology of Obesity. Our lab is full of lively didactics, discussion, and research conversations--we look forward to new members joining us in the 2015-2016 school year!  Click HERE for more information!
