Our program seeks to equip trainees to be the microbiology leaders of the future. Accordingly, we are looking for a cohort of residents that are committed to a career in medical microbiology, keen to advance its evolving role in patient care and are capable of learning, understanding and integrating the large volume of material required.
Our program places the wellness of our residents as a high priority. The LMP Wellness Subcommittee includes representation from all LMP residency programs. It meets on an as needed basis to plan Wellness events for residents in all programs. The committee is responsible for the planning of various wellness events such as the Annual Residents’ Wellness Day retreat, program-specific wellness activities and welcome events for new residents.
