Research at the intersection of health equity, communication, and technology
CHET brings together researchers in health communication, artificial intelligence, and biomedical science to improve preventive health information and outcomes for underserved communities, particularly across the Global South.
Health innovation cannot be equitable if communities cannot access, understand, or trust it.
Â
Created from a shared concern about communication, trust, and access
Founded in 2026 by early-career researchers in health communication, AI, and biomedical science, CHET addresses barriers that prevent underserved communities from accessing and trusting health information.
Drawing on work across Nigeria, the United States, and beyond, CHET helps ensure emerging health technologies reduce inequalities rather than deepen them.
