About us
The mission of the Penn Medical Communication Research Institute is to advance medical communication by facilitating research into how medical information is communicated via publications, press releases, and the media. The Institute researches approaches and strategies to deliver medical information in an effective, trustworthy way, which is particularly needed for vulnerable populations who have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19. The Institute aims to understand the flow of scientific information through medical publishing, the flow of medical information through the media, and the flow of medical information to the public.
