Members and Collaborators

Membership Benefits:

The Cardiovascular Centre (CCVI) combines our expertise to provide an excellent multidisciplinary training environment to support and enhance clinical, basic, and translational cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, cardio-respiratory, cardio-renal, and related health sciences studies. Members of the CCVI benefit from research and education on the management and treatment of disease. Moreover, CCVI members have priority access to our research INVESTIGATORS, facilities, and input into future plans for the Centre.

We also encourage members, colleagues, and students to attend our CCVI Seminars and Distinguished Scientist Lectures, as well as our Cardiovascular Scientific Day conference.

The CCVI is a network of individuals involved in collaborative cardiovascular research including investigators, clinicians, graduate and undergraduate trainees. Early, mid and senior career investigators holding an appointment with the University of Guelph are welcome. Please contact tmartino@uoguelph.ca for information on membership.
