• About

  Christopher Cascio is a doctoral student in the Communication Studies Department at the University of Michigan.  Broadly he is interested in communication neuroscience, which combines methods from communication studies and social neuroscience.  His research focuses on neurocognitive mechanisms associated with persuasive health messages delivered through mass media in order to better understand subsequent behavior.  In addition, Chris is interested in how knowledge gained from neuroimaging may complement what we know from self-reports and behavioral research about how people process persuasive health messages.
