Description

Dr. Elizabeth Angeli is the 2019 Eunice C. Williams Scholar in Health and Medical Communication. She will give the talk “What Pre-hospital Care Providers Can Teach Us about Emergency Communication” that will examine how individuals in emergency situations use language to convey health and medical information quickly and effectively in high-pressure situations involving matters of life and death.

Angeli’s talk is sponsored by the Eunice C. Williamson Endowment in Technical Communication and represents continued interdisciplinary collaborations around research in health, medicine, and biomedical engineering. During her visit to campus, she will meet with students and faculty to discuss prospective collaborations around the area of emergency medical communication as well as deliver a guest lecture in an undergraduate class on digital painting (part of the “Master Class Lecture Series” sponsored by Tech’s Technical Communication program). Angeli’s visit is designed to share information across institutions and disciplines as well as foster research and teaching collaborations among faculty and students working in different disciplines and at different schools.

Angeli is currently an Assistant Professor of English at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. At Marquette, she teaches courses in technical communication, writing research methods, and rhetoric, and she is currently conducting a six-year research project with the Milwaukee Fire Department that studies writing education in first responder training programs.
