Our Trainee Advisory Committee (TAC)
The Trainee Advisory Committee ensures that the voice of the next generation in patient-oriented research is fully integrated into our initiatives. In collaboration with our other committees, it supports the development of activities designed by and for trainees, contributes to strategic planning, mobilizes a pan-Canadian network, and helps identify needs to guide our actions. Through its involvement, the committee offers its members concrete opportunities for learning and professional development, particularly in leadership, meeting facilitation, and collaboration, while directly contributing to shaping our priorities and initiatives for the next generation.
