CEHC Annual Health Communication Research Forum
Each year, the Center for Effective Health Communication presents the Health Communication Research Forum. The purpose is to learn about innovations in health communication research. The forum offers opportunities to discuss new communication research funded by our Center, including awardees from our Health Communication Research Grant program. In addition, the forum provides an opportunity to network with other health communication researchers inside and outside of Vanderbilt.
