Ann Vincent
Ann Vincent’s journey with obesity began at the age of 5, blending lived experience with academic expertise in her work on obesity research. After earning a BSc in Psychology in 2018, Ann focused her dissertation on self-worth and self-compassion among women with a BMI < 30. This research led to a connection with Dr. Simon Williams, then Chair of the Association for the Study of Obesity, paving the way for further opportunities in the field.
In addition to her research work, Ann is currently working with university students dealing with mental health concerns and neurodiversity, and she is completing a postgraduate degree in clinical psychiatry. As a trustee for both the Obesity Empowerment Network and the Association for the Study of Obesity, and a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society, she leverages her personal experiences and professional knowledge to advance research and advocacy in all aspects of obesity and its comorbidities. Ann’s dedication is driven by a passion for improving the lives of those affected by obesity..
