37 UTDRO Trainees Join Alumni Family

 

On May 31, 2017, UTDRO faculty members, trainees and friends and family congregated in Hart House's Great Hall to celebrate the graduation of our trainees. This year, 4 Physics Residents, 6 Radiation Oncology Residents and 27 Fellows completed their training programs and received their diplomas.

The evening kicked off with a welcome from Dr. Glen Bandiera, Associate Dean of the Postgraduate Medical Education at the Faculty of Medicine. Following this, UTDRO's three Vice Chairs, Dr. Rebecca Wong, Dr. Mike Milosevic and Dr. Shun Wong, took the stage to congratulate the trainees and present them with their diplomas.

In addition to the graduation, several trainees and faculty members also receieved awards. A list of the graduands and award winners is available below.

The day wrapped up with a final cake cutting to wrap up UTDRO's year-long 25th anniversary celebrations. Our congratulations to all the trainees and our faculty for a very productive and successful quarter century.
