Ian Mosby in Globe & Mail on Post-War Government Nutritional Studies

Ian Mosby, a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of History, is featured today in a news report by the Canadian Press, which appears in the Globe and Mail. Mosby published historical research that says hungry aboriginal children and adults were once used as unwitting subjects in nutritional experiments by Canadian government bureaucrats between 1942 and 1952. His work appeared in the May edition of Social History, published by the University of Toronto Press. A graduate of York University, Mosby researches and teaches about politics, culture and science of food in Canada during the 20th century. (from UofGuelph.ca)
