Dr Kathy Weston

One of our researchers of the month, Professor Amelia Lake, talks to Dr Cassie Rhodes about her newly published study, co-authored with Dr Shelina Visram and other members of the FUSE team. It outlines numerous risks associated with children and young people's consumption of energy drinks, including an increased incidence of mental health problems. Professor Lake talks us through the evidence, outlines her hopes for policy change and provides some useful practical suggestions for parents and schools.
