Funding available for Schulich students to attend SRPC Conference 2012

"The variety and quality of the speakers was amazing."

"Many of the topics directly impacted the way I will counsel and treat patients."

"...a fantastic experience for students such as myself to learn valuable practical clinical information, network with fellow students, residents and physicians from across the country, and inform ourselves about our future career opportunities in family medicine."

The students we helped to attend the 2011 Society of Rural Physicians of Canada (SRPC) Conference have raved about the workshops, speakers, and networking opportunities.

SWOMEN would like to assist more Schulich students from Years 2 to 4 make their way to Whistler, BC to participate in what promises to be another terrific opportunity to connect with other students, residents, and physicians with an interest in rural and/or remote medicine. Up to $750 is available to a limited number of students who apply before February 12, 2012.

Information about registration and preliminary schedules can be found on the SRPC website.
