A Centre of Excellence for Tropical and Geographic Medicine 

The JD MacLean Centre for Tropical and Geographic Medicine aims to be a premier centre of expertise, research, and training in the broad fields of Tropical and Geographically-restricted Infectious Diseases, and health problems of populations in remote and low-resource settings. This focus encompasses infectious pathologies imported among travellers and migrants, those arising in endemic settings abroad and in Canada, and those linked to exposure to ecosytems, animals, or vectors.
