Research Electives on AFMC


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I was looking through the AFMC portal to see if there were any research electives and was surprised to find that there aren't any listed for most of the schools including University of Toronto. I looked at the UofT's own elective site and saw that they did indeed have research electives there but didn't have those listed on the AFMC. Is it possible to contact the department and potential PI then apply for the elective or if its not on AFMC is it not allowed?

I suspect this has to do with the fact that it's difficult to have a meaningful research experience in a typical elective time block (i.e. 2 weeks, 4 weeks). I'd suggest reaching out to a preceptor at your home school so that you could work on something longitudinally or approach a preceptor about writing up a case report if you see something particularly interesting on a normal elective/rotation.
