Membership Opportunity at Toronto Musculoskeletal Centre

Dear Faculty Members,

As the Interim Director of Toronto Musculoskeletal Centre, I am delighted to invite you and other faculty members from the broad musculoskeletal community at the University to join our Centre.
 
The Centre will facilitate interdisciplinary translational research and education in the broad musculoskeletal field, with a goal to enhance research and education to drive the future of musculoskeletal care from bench to bedside to the community.  We are broadly defining the musculoskeletal field, and including areas such as rheumatology, orthopaedics, cell biology, animal models, engineering, epidemiology, physical and occupational therapy, rehabilitation, dentistry, pathology, and imaging. Faculty members from any department or faculty at the University can join.  We are in the process of developing a collaborative graduate program in musculoskeletal sciences which will facilitate achieving the Centre's goal. 
 
There are two types of membership in the Centre: (1) members and (2) graduate faculty members (who hold an SGS appointment).  
 
Graduate Faculty members are expected to present at the seminar series, participate in a collaborative graduate program in musculoskeletal science, and supervise or co-supervise graduate students in the musculoskeletal sciences area.
 
To become a member or faculty in the Centre please send the following information to Nadia Jaber by email at: msk.admin@utoronto.ca. Deadline is September 30, 2012.  We plan to post all of the faculty on our website.

Feel free to contact me if you have any question about the Centre.
 
 
All the best
