Western’s Medical Innovation Fellowship (MIF) program is designed to provide the most in-depth training experience in medical device and health technology innovation within Canada. The program offers a multidisciplinary experience that focuses on creating innovative solutions to real world clinical problems.
Innovation fellowship programs have been developed to immerse highly talented young scientists, engineers and clinicians in training and research environments that build innovation leaders and inspire the creation of novel medical technologies.
Fellows build an extensive network of contacts within the med tech ecosystem of London and Ontario as well as gain experience assessing opportunities, inventing therapies, and strategizing for the clinical, regulatory, reimbursement and financing activities necessary to develop a commercially viable product. After their 10.5 months in the Program, fellows thrive in a variety of pursuits, including starting their own companies, leadership positions with early-stage to large, multi-national medical device manufacturers, joining design & development service providers, research/teaching positions at academic institutions, and clinical practice.
Applications for this program are now open and will be accepted until positions are filled. Interviews will take place in March of 2022. Please direct questions regarding this application process to medicalinnovation@uwo.ca
