Welcome to the School of Biomedical Sciences at McGill University
The School of Biomedical Sciences (SBMS) was created in April 2020 as part of Project Renaissance, a strategic planning exercise for the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. The School federates all biomedical research and education activities within the Faculty. Our nine constituent units bring together internationally renowned teams in all areas of biomedical research, creating stimulating environments with innovative and interdisciplinary training programs.
