Education and Research

The UWIMAA Canadian Chapter by way of our Professional Advancement and Continuing Education (PACE) Committee has created a Research Networking Database.

This initiative is intended to enable members at all levels of their careers to become knowledgeable about the spectrum of research that is being done by our alumni.

The UWIMAA Canadian Chapter seeks to involve physicians and medical students of all cohorts, to support all, especially younger doctors, to maintain and expand their professional contacts and advance their education and career.

We can support fellow UWI Medical Alumni who choose to come to Canada to complete residency, fellowship, research purposes or various medical activities. The Canadian Chapter consists of UWI medical alumni who have experience in the Canadian Health System through living, practicing or having completed postgraduate training.

The Pelican Award:  

The Pelican award is the highest award that a UWIAA Chapter may bestow. It is thus highly prestigious. The Pelican Award is a special alumni accolade and indicates how very proud the fellow alumni of the awardee are, of his/her, national, regional and/or international success and renown.
