The Health Communication Lab is a forum for researchers who work at the intersection between health, healthcare, communication and language.

It is a College-wide, interdisciplinary group whose members come from a diverse range of backgrounds, including disability studies, health psychology and communication, discourse studies, applied linguistics, pragmatics, sociolinguistics, clinical communication and intercultural competency.

In our seminars, we discuss papers of interest, potential research ideas and grant proposals, data that members are working with or methodological challenges. We also run events with a health communication theme.

The group’s members include Deborah Chinn, Katherine Bristowe, Maxine Ali, Olivia Knapton, Chris Tang. Eva Ogiermann, Shuangyu li, Poppy Ellis Logan, Yuan Wang, Marleen Pauls and Jessica La.
