Our community at IHPME is built around making a difference in healthcare. No matter the pursuit––whether as a researcher or a healthcare professional––we have the unique benefit of the University of Toronto’s central position within Canada’s healthcare community. This opportunity is embraced by each of the IHPME programs, which are designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice. Intellectual exchanges happen offsite just as they do on-site with students cultivating valuable connections to some of the country’s most prominent institutions and thought-leaders.
