Brittany Lash, PhD - Part 1, Her story

  • Summary

  • #007.  How her personal journey with hearing loss helped shape a career in research.  A conversation with Brittany Lash, PhD,  Assistant Professor at the University of Dayton in the College of Arts and Sciences and Department of Communication.

    Dr. Brittany Lash’s primary research interests focus on the intersections between health and interpersonal communication.  A particular passion for disability studies and the communication issues surrounding individuals with disabilities has driven much of her research as she strives to give a voice to individuals within this population.  Dr. Lash’s most recent work in this field has focused on issues of stigma and disclosure for individuals with hearing loss.  Additional research interests include the ways in which we communicate about female body image, especially that of female athletes.  She has published in several journals, including Health Communication and Communication Quarterly, and has contributed entries to the Encyclopedia of Health Communication.
