Get Involved and Participate in Family Medicine Research
Strengthening Research in Family Medicine
The Alberta College of Family Physicians (ACFP) supports our family medicine researchers and practice-based research networks (PBRNs) through highlighting in-progress research projects that are well-grounded in family medicine practice, and have demonstrated substantial input from family physicians at the earliest stages of the research project development.
The following opportunities below have been reviewed first by staff and then peer reviewed by ACFP members who have deemed them to be of interest or relevant to members and/or family medicine or primary health care research.
It is by no means an endorsement by the ACFP but an acknowledgement that the inclusion of the posting is reasonable to share with members.
