Safety During International Travel Alert
by Jessica Fraser 21 Jan '19

21 Jan '19

Sent on behalf of Hope Anderson, Vice-Dean Graduate Studies, Rady Faculty of Health Sciences Dear Colleagues: Recent events have called attention to increasing global political instability and the importance of safety during international travel. Following the recent advice of Foreign Affairs Minister Freeland, we want to advise that the university community follow Government of Canada travel advisories at all times. As such, until more information is available, university-related student and staff travel to areas with changing travel advisories, such as China, is to be postponed. Faculty may wish to limit travel as well. Our hope is that the situation will be resolved soon, and that this will not impact our many valued partnerships with Chinese institutions. If communications with partner institutions are required in order to explain why travel is being postponed, the International Centre<mailto:kennis.fung@umanitoba.ca?subject=Advice%20on%20communications%20with%20Chinese%20partners%20> is available to support. We encourage faculty, staff and students to use the following resources for all travel: * International SOS<http://umanitoba.ca/research/international_centre/emergency_contact.html> - This is University of Manitoba's first point of contact in an emergency and a valuable resource for pre-travel advice. It provides comprehensive medical and travel security assistance service. They are available 24/7, 365 days per year, and free to faculty, students, and staff. You can call our dedicated number<http://umanitoba.ca/research/international_centre/emergency_contact.html>, register online<http://umanitoba.ca/research/international_centre/emergency_contact.html> and/or request your free International SOS card from the International Centre<http://umanitoba.ca/research/international_centre/emergency_contact.html>. * Registration of Canadians Abroad<https://travel.gc.ca/travelling/registration> - this is a free service that allows the Government of Canada to quickly locate you and provide support in case of an emergency abroad.

Aurora Shutdown
by Jessica Fraser 13 Nov '18

13 Nov '18

Hello everyone, As you know, Aurora INB will be shutting down from November 21 - 26 due to the Banner 9 upgrade. Per the email from the Registrar's Office, the shutdown will prevent any transcript orders. Subsequently, kindly remind your students to order their transcripts early as the Aurora shutdown may impact their ability to complete their Tri-Agency CGSM application, which is due on December 3rd. Each year, at least one application is deemed ineligible for failing to submit current and up to date U of M transcripts. In particular, this is an issue for students who are in the first year of their Master's program at U of M. There seems to be misconception that they do not need to submit these transcripts because they do not have grades from the fall courses. Please ensure that students are made aware of this requirement. Thank you and please do not hesitate to ask if you need further clarification.

[cid:2C3159E1-4EC5-4C29-AA44-73846E037A01]What is the CSHRF (and why should you care?)? The CSHRF<http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/index.html> is a full-on, in-person connection-hack for student researchers in the health sciences. It’s aims: network, showcase and recognize excellence. Who? About 350 students (about an even split between Manitoba and beyond) connecting across departments, faculties and nationally with top academic leadership, funders and scientists. What? It’s an in-body meeting of minds and interests – social, without the "social media” construct… an actual connection-hack with food for the body and mind! How? See the <http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/cshrf_abstracts.html> abstracts<http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/cshrf_abstracts.html> (note: these will be on-line on June 1) and the posters (Manitoba competition – June 11; National – June 13 – all in the Brodie) Mingle - meet the poster presenters Awards – cheer the presentations (<http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/media/CSHRF_2018_Age…>Manitoba<http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/media/CSHRF_2018_Age…> June 12; National<http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/media/CSHRF_2018_Age…> June 14)… maybe pick up one yourself!

Research Days
by Jessica Fraser 21 Feb '18

21 Feb '18

Dear Health Graduate Students and Post-Docs , You entered this field with pure altruism - to make the world a better place through scientific insights, finding a cure or therapy... in stewardship of the uniqueness of your genius. But let's face it, a bit of recognition and positive mouth-feel help keep the vision alive. Speaking of which... Research Days (aka Canadian Student Health Research Forum, CSHRF) is (are) coming and it's time to get your (research) stuff together... write an abstract... make a poster... strut your stuff! (you know the drill) The Manitoba Health Research Poster Competition happens June 11, but we need the abstracts by March 15. Here's the deal: everyone (participants, that is) wins (experience, exposure, feedback, networking), receives free food and tours (and the other fun events, too) and yes, there are prizes. The first step is to submit an abstract... http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/mb_competition.html Need more info?

Invitation - Student Health Research Poster Competition - June 11
by Jessica Fraser 13 Feb '18

13 Feb '18

The Manitoba Health Research Poster Competition (June 11) for graduate students is a great venue for students from across the health spectrum (Animal Science to zoologists... as broad as the CIHR mandate) to gain practice in presentation, receive feedback from experienced judges (awards of excellence are also available), and network with students from across the breadth of health research, both here and nationally. The opportunities for networking within the Canadian Student Health Research Forum (CSHRF) are broad, from social events (June 13) such as a social evening and dinner and tours... the broad-spectrum symposium by Gairdner laureates (June 14) and meeting with CIHR leadership for a workshop on Career Development (June 12). And it's all free for participants, so I'd encourage you consider this opportunity and to pass the message along to your colleagues. For more information please see: www.umanitoba.ca/medicine/research_days<http://www.umanitoba.ca/medicine/research_days> <http://www.umanitoba.ca/medicine/research_days> Application/Abstract Deadline: March 15, 2018 http://umanitoba.ca/outreach/conferences/research_days/mb_competition.html Ed Kroeger, PhD Coordinator, CSHRF Max Rady College of Medicine University of Manitoba Tel: (204) 789-3777 Fax: (204) 789-3942 E-mail: edwin.kroeger(a)umanitoba.ca<applewebdata://A16291D4-8DCB-40C5-AD5F-28564AC0952E/ekroeger@cc.umanitoba.ca> Www.umanitoba.ca/medicine/research_days<http://Www.umanitoba.ca/medicine/research_days> <http://Www.umanitoba.ca/medicine/research_days>
