2024
Great science + great presenters + great panel = great day!
Last Tuesday, our World Class Teams panel was treated to a showcase of 20 “elevator pitch” presentations from potential world class teams. Wow! What talent we have in our Department. I couldn’t be prouder.
Thanks to the teams who clearly put in a colossal effort to prepare submissions/presentations. Also, a shout out to the leaders, past and present, who support/have supported the development of these fantastic teams.
The panelists were thoroughly impressed with the depth and breadth of the science presented. They expressed that we should take great pride in hosting such fantastic teams in the DOM.
HUGE shout out to Ferdinand Ochor and the AEC8 crew whose outstanding event organization efforts led to a logistically smooth and tech bug-free day at the new OSLER auditorium.
The panel will reconvene shortly to finalize the selection process with an expected announcement of our top 3 Established and top 3 Emerging teams in the coming month.

Thank you for your applications to the DOM World Class Teams Process. We're excited to announce that 20 teams will be presenting at the World Class Teams competition on March 26, 2024. Each team will deliver a 10 minute “elevator pitch” presentation to our panel, followed by 5 minutes of feedback.
Our goal? To identify our top 3 established world class teams and our top 3 emerging world class teams across the McGill DOM ecosystem.
Established world class teams include multiple scientists collaborating and generating world leading outputs in an area. Emerging world class include multiple scientists collaborating in an area with clear and attainable plans to become world leaders. Read more about the World Class Teams Process here.
With over 160 members participating, this event is a first of its kind in the DOM, so join us virtually and come support your teams!
