BCCDC hosts public health rounds to encourage new ways of thinking, introduce new or updated ideas, generate discussion, and in some cases debate around important public health issues.
BCCDC Grand Rounds are a College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada CME accredited activity and are broadcast online.
These rounds must have educational value for the target audience, as identified by the Grand Rounds committee. Volunteers and suggestions from the BCCDC community are welcome, but need to be confirmed by the committee before scheduling.
Types of presentations that are relevant to Grand Rounds and eligible for CME credits include the following:
The Grand Rounds committee welcomes joint presentations between BCCDC and external speakers, research and service collaborations, and team presentations. All presentations need to provide learning objectives and include 10-15 minutes for questions from the audience.
Presenter: Dr. Jennifer Ferris, postdoctoral CIHR Health Systems Impact Fellow at the Gerontology Research Center at SFU.
The views of the presenters are not necessarily those of the BCCDC nor do they necessarily represent BCCDC policy. The official BCCDC policy on an issue can be found on the BCCDC website or by contacting

Webcasting for Grand Rounds is generously supported by PHSA.
