Ann Herring is a physical anthropologist who teaches at McMaster University in Hamilton. To quote Dr. Herring’s web site:

“Much of my current research focuses on the determinants of health in Canada, with a particular emphasis on Aboriginal health. My current projects examine 19th and 20th century epidemics (especially influenza and tuberculosis), nutrition, and environmental health.”
