Specializing in Family and Health Communication, Dr. Nolan-Cody teaches and studies topics at the intersection of family and health communication. Her research appears in outlets such as the Journal of Family Communication, the Journal of Communication, and Patient Education and Counseling.

Dr. Nolan-Cody has been selected to discuss her research topic titled, “Asset or Liability? Communication in the Face of Family Health Crises.” Dr. Nolan-Cody’s research focuses on family health contexts, such as how families might be a site for communicative coping and resilience practices when navigating stigmatized health stressors that place pressure upon the family unit.
