The McMaster Child Health Trainee Research Day is held annually, usually in early June. This is a forum to celebrate the work of trainees at various levels who are involved with child health research (e.g. medical students, graduate and postgraduate students, residents and fellows). Submissions for oral and/or poster presentations should be submitted to Dr. Stephanie Atkinson, Associate Chair of Research for the Department of Pediatrics, prior to April 30.

Although this Research Day is open to all applicants, it is an expectation for all 3rd year residents to present their projects at this venue. In addition, residents whose projects have been funded through the resident research award are also expected to present. This can be work in-progress, a research protocol or a completed project. There will be a prize awarded to the best presentation for each category of trainee.
