The Canada Research Chair is devoted to the social and cultural history of international health in the Americas, with case studies in Canada, Cuba, Brazil, and Costa Rica. I am looking at the way ethnicity influenced the nature of health communication during epidemics in the twentieth century.
Students interested in pursuing a Master’s degree in History or on a health-related topic in the social sciences at the University of Windsor should contact Professor Palmer to inquire about research opportunities.
