It is my pleasure to welcome you to the research section of our webpage. Here you will find a brief history of research at the department, information on how to contact us if you would like be part of our research program, and titles of current projects.
We have had a long history of clinical research in our department, commencing with our country's first multi-center randomized clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of different wavelengths for the treatment of AMD. Our faculty, residents and medical students have since been part of hundreds of publications.
Our faculty members have received careers-scientist awards from the Ontario Ministry of Longterm Heath, and the Canadian Institutes for Health Research.
If you are interesting in performing a research project or research fellowship with us, please contact: Kathy Galt, Research Assistant
