The Annual Student Research Day of the Department of Psychiatry at the Jewish General Hospital University Health Centre (JGH) is an annual in-person and hybrid event showcasing student oral and interactive poster presentations at the Institute of Community and Family Psychiatry (ICFP) and within the Psychosocial Aspects of Disease research axis at the Lady Davis Institute for Medical Research (LDI). Its main goal is to provide a venue for trainees to present their latest findings in clinical and community psychiatry.

Usually held in late spring (such as early June) of each year, the Psychiatry Student Research Day is a half-day event open to students, faculty, and health professionals in the hospital and the wider community. 

The Annual JGH Department of Psychiatry Student Research Day is held in hybrid mode – via Zoom or in person at the ICFP Amphitheatre (4333, St. Catherine Road, Montreal, Quebec, H3T 1E4) of the JGH, from 12:00 pm to 3:30 pm or 4:00 pm.

Includes a hosted lunch, student research showcases, and cash awards for the Best Oral Presentation and Best Poster Presentation.

The activity is accredited; certificates of attendance are sent by email after the event.

This event is an accredited group learning activity as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, and benefits from the generous support of the Gustav Levinschi Foundation.
