Research and Academics

The Division of Clinical Neurosciences in collaboration with the Division of Oncology, is a respected and growing academic and research program. Led by a team of primary investigators and collaborators, the program is at the forefront of cutting-edge research. The Cancer Rehabilitation Research portfolio includes studies in randomized controlled trials and prospective and retrospective study design. The program emphasizes strong mentorship for medical trainees including medical students, residents, fellows, and postgraduate students with varying levels and prior experience with research.

Distinguished by its staff's affiliations with national granting agencies, partnerships with the University of Calgary and community academics, and its well-published staff and fellows; the Calgary Cancer Rehabilitation program offers unparalleled opportunities for fellows to engage in research leadership and collaboration. With access to an extensive research infrastructure including our affiliation with multiple research institutes, fellows benefit from comprehensive support throughout the research process.

Furthermore, the program's robust health sciences library equips fellows with essential skills in manuscript writing, publishing, grantsmanship, systematic and scoping reviews, and referencing software utilization. This holistic approach ensures that fellows not only contribute meaningfully to ongoing research endeavours but also develop essential competencies to excel in their academic and clinical pursuits.
