2022 Symposium

The eighth annual Health & Medical Education Scholarship Symposium was held on Thursday, February 24, 2022. There were 100 people in attendance from the Universities of Calgary (Faculties of Medicine, Nursing and Veterinary Medicine), Alberta, Mount Royal (and even Emory University in the U.S.!),
as well as Alberta Health Services.

We welcomed Drs. Mahan Kulasegaram and Lara Varpio as the keynote speakers and featured workshop facilitators. In addition, there were 20 orals, and 9 posters presented, with sessions adapted to accommodate the virtual format. This was the second year that the symposium was virtual, and feedback regarding the event continued to be very positive despite the limitations of an on-line event.

We would like to thank everyone for making this a successful event, and we look forward to seeing you in person at the 2023 symposium.

There were 101 people in attendance from the Universities of Calgary (Faculties of Medicine, Veterinary Medicine and Nursing), Alberta, Ottawa, Saskatchewan, Mount Royal, and Alberta Health Services.

We welcomed Drs. Saleem Razack and Chris Watling as the keynote speakers and featured workshop facilitators. There were 4 workshops, 12 orals, and 14 posters presented, all adapted to accommodate the virtual format. Although we missed the in-person conversations that have been a large part of past symposiums, feedback regarding the event was overwhelmingly positive.

We would like to thank everyone for making this a successful event, and look forward to seeing you at the 2022 symposium!
