Wearables and Biomechanics 2025 Summer School

The Wearables and Biomechanics 2025 Summer School (in collaboration with the University of British Columbia's School of Biomedical Engineering)

• When: June 23 to 26, 2025
• Where: University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC

40 trainees (20 from the MSK Network, 20 from UBC) will be selected on a competitive basis using the application linked below. Local students can attend without funding as they will not need an accommodation or travel support.

Please read the Application Instructions (at the beginning of the Qualtrics form) thoroughly before completing the application as each summer school has its own requirements.

For more information: https://mskrehabnet.com/trainee-support-opportunities/2025-trainee-summer-schools/

Requirements:

• Applicants must be graduate students registered and attending a Canadian post-secondary institution.
• Applicants must be a member of the Canadian MSK Rehab Research Network (If you are not already a Network member, apply here: https://mskrehabnet.com/about/current-members/)
• Applicants will be required to include a 750-word Letter of Interest and a 2-page brief Curriculum Vitae (see the application for more details).

Important Details:

• There is no registration fee for any attendee.
• Funding support will be provided to trainees who need to travel from out of province in order to attend the summer school. Funding support will include your accommodation and $500 for travel from a neighbouring province, or $1000 for travel from elsewhere (e.g., Ontario, Nova Scotia, etc.). Local students may be able to attend without funding as they will not need accommodation or travel support.
• Supervisors are expected to provide a minimum of $500 to help cover travel costs for their students. Any trainee not located in the Greater Calgary area (for the University of Calgary Summer School) or the Greater Vancouver area (for the University of British Columbia Summer School) and that needs travel support must provide written proof that their supervisor is providing $500 support to assist with travel expenses.
• We will be accepting trainees from across Canada. However, due to limited funds and capacity we cannot accept all applications. A review process will be used to determine the successful candidates.
• Applications will close on April 28, 2025.
• If you have any questions about the summer schools or applications, please email the Network Coordinator at rehabnet@uwo.ca
