Did you catch us at #abct2025 a few weeks ago? Our lab was lucky enough to send a few members to the Annual Convention of the Association of Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies. We had a great time presenting our three projects, making new connections, and exploring New Orleans!

Hi! 👋 We're the Body image, Eating, Access, and Media (BEAM) lab at Clemson University! We study body image, eating behaviors, technology, and media use.

A collage of two group pictures. Each picture features undergraduate students, graduate students, and their faculty mentor at academic conferences.

This picture states "Our mission. Our mission is to improve health and well-being for all adults trying to navigate the current sociocultural and environmental barriers to eating well and developing a positive body image. We strive to identify how digital technology can negatively impact the health of its users and explore ways in which we can use technology to deliver evidence-based care to all people."
