Celebration of Research and Training in Oncology 

The inaugural Celebration of Research and Training in Oncology (CORTO) was held on June 21, 2022 at the Sofitel Hotel in downtown Montreal and the event was part of the McGill University Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences' Bicentennial programming. The second annual CORTO event was held on June 8, 2023 also at the Sofitel Hotel.  This annual event provides an opportunity not only for trainees to showcase their research to a multidisciplinary group and learn about work being done in other cancer research disciplines, but also for the Department to formally recognize the graduating trainees.
