Research information:
Health communication is a convergent discipline with multiple actors, people, organizations, and mass media communicating health related messages. These messages are mediated through various socio-cultural, political, and economic factors. I am particularly interested in the ways systems of beliefs, values, actions, and symbols that are shared by people and social groups and that differ among them influence communication in health care interactions.
