Learn about today's lab-bench discoveries that will be tomorrow's treatments

"At the JGH Mini-Med School, the public have the opportunity to learn from leading experts all about the latest research advances made at the Lady Davis Institute for Medical Research, and how these fantastic developments will have a direct impact on their health. The JGH, TD Insurance Meloche Monnex and 92.5 The Q share a commitment to reaching out to the community through public education programs."
