Portrait of Lauren Fowler

Research and Teaching Interests

Dr. Lauren A. Fowler is an applied social psychologist who conducts transdisciplinary, mixed methods research to promote physical and mental health equity and reduce disparities through examination of health determinants (i.e., psychological, social, structural,cultural, and health systems factors). Her current projects focus on weight-related discrimination and intersectional stigma among individuals of diverse sizes who identify as LGBTQIA+; body image and housing insecurity among LGBTQIA+ youth; and the use of technology (i.e., mHealth, AI and rule-based chatbots) to increase access to evidence-based care for disordered eating prevention.


Challenge the conventional. Create the exceptional. No Limits.
