Message from the Chair

The Discipline of Laboratory Medicine is dedicated to excellence in teaching, research and clinical service.

Our discipline encompasses pathology, infectious disease and microbiology, chemistry, biochemistry, hematology, cytogenetic, and molecular genetics.

Our faculty strive for excellence in their individual fields and work closely with our residents, who are successful not only in their Royal College examinations, but also in securing employment within our province and elsewhere in Canada.

Our Diagnostic and Molecular Pathology Residency Program is fully accredited with the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. We have also been granted provisional accreditation by the Canadian Association of Clinical Biochemists Board and began accepting postdoctoral learners into our new Clinical Biochemistry Training Program in July 2024.

I invite you to browse through our website and become familiar with our faculty, residents, and their achievements. Our discipline is dedicated to excellence in teaching, research, and clinical service.

Jane Barron, M.D., MSc, FRCPC
