PROGRAM OVERVIEW
What this program offers
McGill explicitly publishes one full-time research-fellow position alongside its clinical fellowships. Because the university does not separately publish the research post’s duration, funding, eligibility or deadline, those fields remain transparently unpublished rather than inferred from the clinical programme.
BENEFITS & SUPPORT
Published benefits and support
Access to a seven-faculty paediatric orthopaedic division across Montreal Children’s Hospital and Shriners Children’s Canada, including a 23,000-square-foot wet-laboratory floor and research methodology and outcomes-analysis supervision.
Benefits may depend on appointment type, training level, visa status and the active academic year. OrthoFellow keeps stipend and benefits separate so a salary figure is not mistaken for the full package.
