The Department of Medicine is led by a diverse team of senior leaders, who are recognized for their national and international contributions to academic medicine.
Education and Research are the portfolios that drive the Department of Medicine’s strategic vision and mission – and each portfolio is led by our Associate Heads. Each of our 18 divisions is led by an appointed Division Head.
The leadership team meets monthly at the UBC Executive Committee Meeting where members share departmental and university business as well as engaging in strategic planning for the department. The team works together to create goals and objectives that continue to grow and strengthen the UBC Department of Medicine.
