HCTP People

HCTP is designed as a rich, learning environment for scholars at all stages of career development, including senior and junior faculty, and doctoral and post-doctoral fellows. This diversity facilitates collaboration and mentorship at multiple levels.

Interdisciplinary Expertise

HCTP Faculty Mentors come from all four academic divisions at University of Toronto, representing the Life Sciences, Physical and Applied Sciences, Social Sciences, and the Humanities. Many are trained in disciplines outside the domain of traditional health care scholarship. All HCTP Faculty Mentors hold stellar track records in their respective disciplines, effectively balance skills of leadership and teamwork, and participate in the HCTP training program as supervisors, teachers, mentors, and collaborators.

HCTP Fellows are highly qualified doctoral and post-doctoral researchers coming from all four academic divisions to address the relationships between and among health care recipients, providers, technologies and the settings where care takes place.

National and International

Pertinent expertise about health care, technology, and place is scattered across the globe. HCTP has established partnerships with leading scholars in Canada and internationally to enhance the research potential of this collaborative initiative. HCTP "External Mentors" participate both in research and training programs, through use of distance education technologies, and visiting faculty appointments.
