The Chair is jointly held between St. Michael’s Hospital and the University of Toronto and is for a five-year term, effective April 22.
In this chair position, Dr. Ng will use her research to bridge the best of both worlds – excellent education and high quality care. Leveraging the clinical environment and broader hospital community, Dr. Ng will study, create, implement, test and optimize how we teach health professionals for and in real contexts of care.
“I’m honoured by this appointment. The vision for this chair is for health professions education to lead the way toward better care. Compassionate, excellent care for all is possible, and education offers a key mechanism to achieve this important though elusive goal,” said Dr. Ng.
