UNIVERSITY HEALTH NETWORK

is a research hospital affiliated with the University of Toronto
and a member of the Toronto Academic Health Science Network.
UHN comprises four academic hospitals, an education institute,
a technology accelerator and six research institutes. Research
is supported in part by UHN Foundation and The Princess
Margaret Cancer Foundation. The wide scope of research
expertise and the complexity of care provided at UHN are made
possible by the integration of discovery, education and patient care.

We acknowledge that the land on which we work is the traditional
territory of many nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit,
the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the
Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations,
Inuit and Métis. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by
Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit. We remember and
honour the legacy of the peoples who have been here before us
and all who work to make the promise and the challenge of Truth
and Reconciliation real. We are grateful to have the opportunity to
live and work on this land.

UHN is committed to championing inclusion, diversity, equality,
equity and accessibility in the learning, work and service
environments. We believe that our differences enrich our ability
to develop creative and innovative approaches to delivering
exemplary patient care, research and education.
