The Canadian Medical Association (CMA), MD Financial Management and Scotiabank together proudly support the International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM), taking place Apr. 13–18, 2023, in Quebec City. ICAM is one of several initiatives that comprise the 10-year, $115 million commitment to supporting the medical profession and advancing health in Canada.

ICAM is an annual congress that brings together leaders in medical education and health research to promote innovation and scholarship in medical education and health research on an international scale. It will have a special focus on all learners – medical students, residents as well as graduate students and post-doctoral scholars – including opportunities to present, network and to connect with mentors and potential employers.
