The successful candidate will actively participate in medical education and/or research. In addition to post-graduate residency training, the Department has commitments to education as a part of the MD Program with the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, providing pre-clinical and clinical teaching for core and elective experiences for undergraduate MD students.

Candidates must have an MD and be certified, or eligible for certification, with the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons as a Psychiatrist with subspecialty training and/or designation in geriatric psychiatry.
Preference will be given to psychiatrists with previous interest in and/or additional medical education and/or research training. The positions will allow up to 0.5 FTE for medical education or research; the remaining FTE will be clinical services with AHS.
