About Us

The Communication, Culture, and Health Research Team at the University of California Merced studies the multiple levels of communication influence on health behaviors and designs communication strategies to reduce health disparities among Latino populations across the acculturation spectrum. We consider media a social determinant of health. The Principal Investigator is Susana Ramírez, PhD, MPH.

Mission Statement

We are committed to understanding how culture and communication influence health outcomes and can contribute to reducing health disparities in the United States. We will be recognized for our commitment to social justice, willingness to express curiosity, scientific excellence, and collegiality.
