Women's College Hospital Cardiometabolic Fellowship

Fellowship Title:	Women's College Hospital Cardiometabolic Fellowship
Division:	Cardiology
Fellowship Type:	Clinical and Research
Supervisor:	Jacob Udell
Duration:	One year
Application Open and Close Date:	July 23 to Aug 13
Anticipated Start Date(s):	Sept. 7, 2021
Number of position(s) per year:	One
Description:	The program is intended to provide emerging clinician investigators with an opportunity to acquire advanced research and clinical skills in the field of cardiometabolic disease. Cardiometabolic disease encompasses the diagnosis and ambulatory management of patients with or at risk of chronic cardiovascular disease (e.g., atherosclerosis, heart failure, cerebrovascular or peripheral vascular disease) including high-risk groups such as those with diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and hyperlipidemia. Patients will be identified in both the acute-care and ambulatory setting with a goal towards a multidisciplinary approach to their longitudinal care. Research will involve the acquisition of new knowledge and skills in conducting Health Canada regulated randomized trials testing new therapies to improve clinical outcomes in these patients. The training will place a particular emphasis on the clinician-scientist role which enables potential synergy between developing an alignment between a clinical career and research focus. Fellows will participate in ambulatory clinics and the consultation service. Specific time for clinical versus educational activities will depend on an individual fellowâ€™s needs. There is no on-call requirement and no weekend clinical service requirements. Fellows are expected to participate in teaching cardiology residents, internal medicine residents and medical students both while in clinic and also in formalized teaching roles (sub- specialty rounds and teaching sessions organized through the post-graduate medical education and undergraduate medical education programs at UofT). Fellows are expected to take an active role in the cardiovascular outcomes research program, a critical research initiative at WCH and UofT. The percent of protected time for research and educational activities will vary between applicants but is expected to be approximately 75%. Fellows will also have an opportunity to lead a secondary analysis of a completed trial or observational/registry study with the intent that the manuscript is submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal by the end of their term.

Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology

Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology

Fellowship Title:	Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology
Division:	Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology
Fellowship Type:	Clinical
Duration:	2 years
Description:	The Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology Fellowship Program is based at two major sites: The Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. It is a two year program. Trainees will acquire in depth knowledge of human pharmacology, therapeutics, and toxicology tailored to different age groups (pediatric and adult), and diverse populations, addressing aspects of gender, ethnicity, and ethics. Over the course of training, fellows must demonstrate competence in the foundations of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenetics, pharmacoeconomics and pharmacoepidemiology. Fellows will also acquire knowledge in drug development and regulation, clinical aspects such as adverse drug reactions and interactions and therapeutic drug monitoring with an objective of improving the levels of health within communities, unique population groups, and individuals. They will also conduct research, utilizing statistical analytic methodology, and critically appraise publications. The program requires the trainee and the supervisor to identify individual future career goals and settings according to the Competence by Design framework. The program integrates the CanMEDS Roles in the training and encourages trainees to undertake advanced level training in related areas. Fellow position availability is dependent upon the funding situations of the supervising faculty members.

Fellowship Title:	Inflammatory Skin Diseases
Division:	Dermatology
Fellowship Type:	Clinical
Supervisor:	Dr Vincent Piguet
Duration:	12 months
Anticipated Start Date(s):	July 1 (flexible)
Number of position(s) per year:	1 - 2
Description:	ï»¿ The inflammatory skin disease fellowship at University of Toronto is a 12-month multi-disciplinary program, incorporating general dermatology and internal medicine. The fellowship is a comprehensive training program that aims to prepare clinician-researchers to care for the wide spectrum of complex dermatological cases encountered in a teaching hospital. Fellows learn to manage inflammatory skin disorders such psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) as well as less common and complex wounds due to systemic disorders such as pyoderma gangrenosum (PG). The Fellowship also fosters a rich environment for productive research activities where fellows are encouraged to develop specific research interests. The Fellowship provides exposure to all aspects of research including clinical research (investigator initiated and industry sponsored trials) as well as robust basic science laboratories. Fellows learn hands on topics in study design, regulatory and ethical considerations as well as “real-life” execution of research protocols. When and how do people become fellows? Registration for candidates generally begins 6 months before the anticipated start date; interviews are conducted in the fall for the upcoming year. Our training program is one year, generally running from July 1^st to June 30^th, however the timelines are flexible. Typically, the CV, letter of interest and three letters of reference are needed for the application. Further documents, required for registration, will be requested if the application is successful. Who can apply? Candidates who completed a full dermatology residency by the time the fellowship commences will be considered. International candidates (i.e., outside the USA or Canada) are welcome. What is our fellowship like? The fellowship is based at Women’s College Hospital, affiliated with the University of Toronto. We expect the fellow will attend clinics with faculty involved in clinical and research work in inflammatory skin diseases, to advance their knowledge and skills in these areas. The program also offers additional opportunities to develop interest in basic science research and clinical research. The fellow is expected to complete a fellowship research project, as per University of Toronto guidelines. The fellow will spend approximately 50% of their time in outpatient clinics (clinical time commitment will depend on research productivity), where they will learn, in a highly mentored environment, the fundamentals of inflammatory skin disease treatment and prevention. The rest of the time will be dedicated to scholarly activities (research and education). The fellows will teach trainees informally at the bedside and also 1-3 hours of formal lectures each month for residents and students. The objectives of the fellowship-training program are: To assess dermatology patients and learn how to perform a focused patient history and physical examination relevant to the complex inflammatory cases, to formulate a provisional management plan, and perform procedures under supervision; To gain expertise in multidisciplinary approach in AD, HS and PG; To present the findings of research at dermatology conferences and to prepare drafts of manuscripts suitable for publication in peer-reviewed journals; To participate in formal rounds and seminars. Fellows are funded by our research and clinical funds, if available, or their own supporting systems (governmental, university or other funding resources). All candidates meeting criteria are encouraged to apply.
