Transition to Residency (T2R)
T2R Summer Series 2026
The Transition to Residency (T2R) program for PGY1s is a series of workshops - held every Wednesday afternoon through the summer - to help facilitate the challenging move from medical school to residency. We welcome all PGY1 Residents to our 2026 presentations. Our T2R academic sessions will be held in a live virtual format over Zoom every Wednesday beginning July 8th to September 16th, from 1-4pm.
All T2R final details, information, live presentation links, and resources will be hosted on OWL and will be updated weekly. OWL access for PGY1 Residents will be sent via your Western University email.
