Zining Wang

Hello, I’m Zining (Arthur) Wang

I am a PhD Student in Communication Studies at the School of Journalism and Communication, Peking University.

My research interests lie in computational communication and health communication.

My past research has included the automated assessment of internet health science communication information, the analysis of the mechanisms behind information epidemics, and the analysis of the effects of multimodal information in international communication.

Currently, I am conducting research on the stigma of diabetes patients, the health information-seeking behavior regarding the prevention and treatment of stroke, and the effectiveness evaluation of multimodal science communication information.

I welcome anyone with similar research interests to contact me for collaboration!
