Rebecca Morris is an NIHR Maudsley BRC PhD student in the Department of Psychological Medicine at King's College London, supervised by Dr. Hubertus Himmerich, Professor Janet Treasure, and Dr. Johanna Keeler.

Rebecca's research is part of the EDEN study, which investigates the use of ketamine to treat depression in adults with anorexia nervosa. Using qualitative methods, including interviews and digital diaries, Rebecca explores participants' experiences of the study and the treatment, alongside clinician perspectives on ketamine use for treatment in this population. She is also interested in how ketamine can be used safely and effectively in people with anorexia nervosa by considering how treatment and population factors may inform ED-specific approaches.

Rebecca previously completed an MSc in Psychiatric Research at King's College London, where she was awarded the Prof. Shitij Kapur Prize for Innovation. She also holds a First Class Honours BSc in Psychology from the University of Greenwich.
