Professor Ian Stedman’s YRC Appointment
The 12th cohort of research chairs have been appointed at York by the Office of the Vice-President Research & Innovation. York Research Chairs represent a diverse range of disciplines and are appointed for a five-year term designed to foster a robust research culture. They receive research funding, contribute to new and innovative projects, and gain opportunities to collaborate and hire graduate students.
The two professors appointed as York Research Chairs within LA&PS were Department of Humanities assistant professor Ola Mohammed and the School of Public Policy & Administration professor Ian Stedman. Mohammed’s work looks at Black culture and the sonic dimension of anti-Blackness in Canada. Stedman’s research looks at how technologies like artificial intelligence and policies are driving greater personalization in health care.
