Medical Research

Major advances in biomedical research are now being made in an environment where basic scientists and research-trained clinicians are interacting. There is a critical need to increase the number of such trained physicians locally, regionally, and nationally. You will concentrate primarily on thesis research and bridge the gap between clinical practice and medical research. In addition, this program offers training in clinical research, which is not otherwise formally offered at Dalhousie. Our program offers various areas of specialization such as basic science, clinical research, epidemiology, population health, and medical education. You’ll have access to organized research infrastructure, the services of a research associate, various internal stipends, and a dedicated research space.
