Postdoctoral Fellow Trainee Advisory Committee (PTAC)

The FoMD PDF Trainee Advisory Committee (PTAC) was established to enhance the training experiences of Postdoctoral Fellows (PDFs) within the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (FoMD). Comprised of four FoMD PDFs, this committee collaborates closely with the Postdoctoral Office to develop best practice guidelines, aiming to ensure consistent, high-quality PDF training experiences. The PTAC’s goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and productive work environment for PDFs while supporting the growth and excellence of PDF programs at the FoMD and the university as a whole.
