Fellows’ Day

Nov. 28, 2023 – 8:00 am – 5:00 pm – Sheraton Centre

Registration: Fellows and residents only, free of charge

For this day, many of the top speakers in our profession come to the conference a day early to speak to (and interact with) residents and fellows from across Canada and abroad who are training in Critical Care Medicine. This is most generous on the part of the speakers but makes the Fellows’ Day one of the best days of the meeting. The audience at Fellows’ Day – aside from the speakers – is exclusively trainees and the talks are for and with trainees, making this unlike any other meeting.
