More Information

The Canadian Paediatric Inpatient Research Network is excited to invite two paediatric trainees to become committee members of its Trainee Advisory Committee (TAC). The TAC's mission is to actively engage trainees in PIRN's initiatives and promote cross-centre research collaboration among paediatric trainees across Canada. The committee is composed of up to three Trainee Leads (including one fellow and 1-2 residents) as well as Trainee Members (fellows, residents, graduate students, and other trainees). Successful applicants will join returning members to contribute their unique perspectives. The standard term for TAC members is 1 year, running from October 1st to September 30th, with the option to renew for an additional year. However if a trainee transitions into a Lead role, the 1-year renewal term for the previous member role will be waived and the trainee will serve an additional year in the lead position. This allows for continuity of involvement while recognizing the increased responsibilities of the Lead role.
