As a certified specialist in sports dietetics, Reece specializes in sports performance-based nutrition, as well as treating Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S), disordered eating and eating disorders in athletes. She has extensive experience in consulting and collaborating with Olympic and professional athletes, local colleges and universities and professional sport and dance facilities.

“We are thrilled to have Laura Moretti Reece as the featured speaker this year,” says Lynn Brann, chair of the Department of Nutrition and Food Studies at Falk. “Laura’s work in sports dietetics and eating disorder treatment strongly aligns with the legacy of Ann Selkowitz Litt and with student interests in nutrition, Falk College and athletics. Her work extends across a variety of athletes and focuses on fueling for health and optimal performance.”

Reece currently serves as a clinical nutrition specialist for Sports Medicine, Orthopedics, and the Female Athlete Program at Boston Children’s Hospital. She is also the consulting dietitian for U.S. Rowing and the Boston Ballet Company and Schools. She was recently appointed to the RED-S Expert Advisory Panel for the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic committees.
