IN THE MEDIA: Professor Carl James partners with U of T to track the demographics of the COVID-19 pandemic

Professor Carl James

Carl James, Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community, & Diaspora at York University’s Faculty of Education is partnering with the University of Toronto to understand how the virus works, spreads, can be contained — and why it affects some populations more than others.

Dr. Upton Allen’s team will ensure his research includes some social science, including a sufficient number of African Canadians to provide representative results that allows them to draw conclusions about the COVID impact on that demographic.
