Professor Robinson leads research examining the environmental, social, and psychological factors that influence eating behaviour and dietary intake, with a focus on how these elements can be addressed to improve public health outcomes related to nutrition, diet, and obesity. His research group also investigates body weight perceptions, the stigma associated with obesity, and the psychosocial burdens of living with higher body weight, exploring their effects on health and well-being. Additional projects address the role of the food environment in shaping population-level diet and weight, as well as the development and evaluation of public health policies aimed at improving nutrition and reducing obesity.
