Call for Contributors
Dear PHPM Resident,
Thank you for considering becoming a PopEM contributor. PopEMs are an opportunity to get paid for doing what you are already doing - staying up-to-date with the literature relevant to public health and preventive medicine and studying for Royal College exams! It is also a way to make a name for yourself in our specialty community, engage with faculty mentors, and hone your skills in knowledge translation.
PHPM residents at all levels are encouraged to submit PopEMs. Developing and submitting a PopEM should be an educational experience that is straightforward and enjoyable. Detailed guidelines for submitting a PopEM, as well as a template for submission are below. Junior residents may wish to speak to senior resident colleagues, faculty members or their program directors for advice on faculty supervision.Thank you for considering becoming a PopEM contributor.
