But who is driving these messages\, and what is the impact on young men’s health? \n\n\n\nJoin the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health’s Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences (SBS) and STRIPED for a virtual panel exploring looksmaxxing\, young men’s mental and physical health\, and how commercial marketers and extremist recruiters use appearance- and masculinity-related messaging on social media to target young men. \n\n\n\nHear from adolescent medicine physicians\, mental health professionals\, and advocates working to understand and respond to these pressures. \n\n\n\nWhat the Panel Covers \n\n\n\n\nWhat looksmaxxing is and how social media is shaping young men’s perceptions of appearance\, body image\, and masculinity\n\n\n\nThe potential mental and physical health consequences of extreme appearance-focused behaviors\n\n\n\nHow commercial marketers capitalize on young men’s body insecurities\n\n\n\nHow extremist recruiters use masculinity-related messaging to reach and influence young men online\n\n\n\nHow healthcare professionals\, mental health clinicians\, and advocates are responding to these challenges\n\n\n\n\nWho Should Attend \n\n\n\nResearchers\, healthcare professionals\, mental health clinicians\, public health practitioners\, students\, advocates\, and anyone interested in young men’s health\, social media\, and the pressures shaping modern masculinity are welcome to attend. \n\n\n\nFormat \n\n\n\nA virtual panel discussion featuring experts in adolescent medicine\, mental health\, and digital harms. \n\n\n\nPanelist Information \n\n\n\n\nGaby Vargas\, MD – Center for Young Men’s Health\, Boston Children’s Hospital\n\n\n\nStefan Breitling\, MD – Center for Young Men’s Health\, Boston Children’s Hospital\n\n\n\nTrey Tucker – Content Creator and Mental Health Clinician\, Rugged Counseling; Author of Tough Enough\n\n\n\nImran Ahmed – Founder and CEO\, Center for Countering Digital Hate\n\n\n\n\nIn the News: Why This Conversation Matters \n\n\n\nLooksmaxxing is making headlines\, raising questions about how social media influencers shape young men’s body image\, self-worth\, and health. \n\n\n\nIn a new Harvard Chan School article\, STRIPED Director S. Bryn Austin discusses growing concerns about looksmaxxing and the mental and physical health consequences of escalating appearance pressures among boys and young men. \n\n\n\nRead: “Looksmaxxing\, focused on optimizing male physical appearance\, raises concerns” \n\n\n\nIn a recent article from the Harvard Independent\, Harvard’s student-run independent newspaper\, STRIPED Director S. Bryn Austin discusses the rise of looksmaxxing culture\, the algorithms amplifying extreme appearance standards\, and the businesses profiting from young men’s insecurities. \n\n\n\nRead: “Clavicular\, Looksmaxxing\, and the Price of Online Influence” \n\n\n\nIn a related interview with Harvard School of Public Health\, Austin examines another troubling trend: social media influencers promoting unapproved synthetic peptides with claims to lead to muscle growth and augment appearance without evidence of their safety or effectiveness. \n\n\n\nRead: “Peptides are all over social media and the news. Here’s what to know about them.” \n\n\n\nThese stories offer a timely look at the pressures\, products\, and profits at the center of our upcoming conversation. \n\n\n\nQuestions? \n\n\n\nFor questions about the event\, please contact grace.pomeroy@childrens.harvard.edu. \n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						Unleash your potential at Harvard Chan School.					\n					In addition to our degree programs\, we offer highly targeted programs through our Advanced Learning Academy\, directed and taught by Harvard faculty. \n											\n																															\n									\n										Degree Programs									\n								\n																															\n									\n										How to Apply									\n								\n																															\n									\n										Advanced Learning Academy
