This course provides a general introduction to communicating science effectively for the purposes of disseminating mental health information to the public. Students will practice writing about specific illnesses that are commonly misunderstood by the general public in a way that is clear & vivid without diluting the topic. They will also learn how to use communication techniques to connect with patients who deal with stigmatizing disorders. The work done in the course by the students will be continually published online through The Humanology Project. The Humanology Project (www.humanologyproject.org) aims for a reduction in stigma of mental & neurological illnesses by bridging the gap of knowledge of attitudes. We do so through the translation of peer reviewed literature into understandable articles and through a story-telling platform where patients can share their stories so readers gain a more holistic sense of the person. We envision a more inclusive & understanding world where people with stigmatized illnesses receive the quality of care and treatment they need.
