The McMaster Health Education Research, Innovation and Theory (MERIT) Centre has served the Faculty of Health Sciences for more than 45 years. We collaborate with faculty to engage in high-impact, high-value education scholarship. Our vision is to grow a community of scientists and clinicians to advance health professions education through research and applied science.
MESSAGE FROM THE ASSISTANT DEAN
As I reflect on this past year, I remain deeply grateful for this vibrant community and excited about the opportunities ahead for our Centre. Our community has evolved and grown during this time. But what will always remain the same is our mission to grow a community of clinicians and scientists to advance health professions education through research and applied science.
