Aaron S. Kelly, PhD, a distinguished Professor of Pediatrics, physiologist and clinical trialist, will delve into the multifaceted factors contributing to childhood obesity. We will explore strategies to combat the stigma surrounding childhood obesity and foster empathetic discussions about weight and health with adolescents and teens. We will also explore notions such as children naturally outgrowing obesity or treating obesity-triggering eating disorders.
