The Program organizes seminars, lectures and symposia throughout the year involving local, national and international guest speakers. Through these venues, students are exposed to a variety of clinical and basic science research areas. The Annual Cardiovascular Scientific Day is organized to bring together faculty across the city. It is a research conference in Cardiovascular Sciences providing a common and relaxed but critical forum of researchers, clinicians and trainees. Each symposium combines both clinical and basic science research to promote cross-fertilization.
Poster sessions allow students to present their research work.
The Annual Student Research Day is organized to allow the program trainees a chance to present their work and get to know their peers and other faculty. After lunch, invited speakers share their experiences over the course of their careers and the students are given the opportunity to discuss with them the trials and tribulations of living a life of education and research. The day finishes with a social mixer for the students and faculty. An active web site is maintained to provide wide dissemination of information in cardiovascular sciences at the University of Toronto.
