Summer wrap up

The end of summer is synonymous with ‘back to school/work’. The lab would like to say thank you and acknowledge our CREMS and summer students.

Aliya Ramjaun is finishing her 20-month CREMS program with us. She will be entering 3rd year of medical school and starting clerkship. Aliya will continue to lead The Transformation Project and be involved in the research study on intra-operative handoff and interprofessional communication in the operating room.

Sydney McQueen is wrapping up a busy summer in the lab, working on the study of perceived and physiologic stress of surgeons in the OR. She will be returning to the lab full-time next summer as she begins work on her PhD. In the meantime, she is starting 2nd year of med school and continuing with her CREMS project during the school year.

Moses Cook is embarking on an internship at Ontario Power Generation. Moses is our research student assisting with the study of perceived and physiologic stress of surgeons in the OR. He is currently an undergraduate student working towards a double-major in biology and physics.

Lastly, we are happy to have Nicole Wright back with us. Nicole is a social anthropologist with extensive experience working in sociological statistics analysis and marketing. She will be carrying on the next phase of research and educational implementation for the study on intra-operative handoff and interprofessional communication.
