Kaitlin L. Costello
Assistant Professor
I study health information practices online and primarily use the grounded theory methodology. My research is concerned with questions of power, autonomy, and biopolitics and how they shape health information practices. I also explore how people assess relevance and credibility of health information, and the role of epistemic privilege/authority in those assessments. I regularly teach human information behavior, critical algorithm studies, and health sciences information at Rutgers.
