Expression of Interest: SAMP Research Mentorship Opportunities

Dear Colleagues, As you may have heard, the Southern Alberta Medical Program (SAMP) is set to launch at the University of Lethbridge in July, expanding opportunities for medical education and training in our region. As part of the SAMP curriculum, learners (SAMP students) participate in a "Professional Roles" component that provides structured exposure to research, community, and scholarly activity. Through this initiative, learners may be matched with faculty researchers to take part in defined, time-limited research-related activities aligned with shared interests. This component aims to introduce learners to the research environment while strengthening connections between clinical practice and research. It also offers an opportunity for University of Lethbridge researchers to engage with motivated trainees and provide meaningful, mentored research experiences. We are sharing this opportunity in advance of a formal call for participation. At this stage, involvement is exploratory only and does not represent a commitment. Rather, it is intended to help gauge interest and assess feasibility within anticipated timelines. Faculty who may be interested in supporting SAMP as a mentor for the research component are invited to express their interest by contacting oris.health(a)uleth.ca as soon as possible (a brief email indicating “I’m interested” is sufficient). This list will be used to share further information and gather additional details as the opportunity develops. We would be delighted to hear from you and appreciate your consideration of this opportunity to support student learning and research engagement. All the best and have a good day, Keiko [A logo with text and sun AI-generated content may be incorrect.] J. Keiko McFarland (McCreary), PhD.

The University of Lethbridge’s Blackfoot name is Iniskim, meaning Sacred Buffalo Stone. The University is located in traditional Blackfoot Confederacy territory. I am grateful to live and work on the traditional land of the Blackfoot people, and continue to learn and honour their traditional ways of knowing in caring for this land, as well as all Indigenous Peoples who have helped shape and continue to strengthen our University community.
