Culinary Medicine 2026: The Mediterranean Approach to Chronic Disease Prevention

Culinary Medicine: The Mediterranean Approach to Chronic Disease Prevention is an interactive, hands-on learning experience designed to teach physicians the evidence behind therapeutic diets for the prevention and management of chronic disease, such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, along with effective strategies to facilitate a patient’s integration of therapeutic dietary patterns into their lifestyle. This includes knowledge translation strategies, food selection and preparation.

This workshop will take place in the culinary department at George Brown College and will be a collaborative learning experience lead by physician scientists, chefs, and registered dietitians. Participants will enjoy lectures, culinary demos, a grocery shopping workshop, and ample opportunity for open questions and discussions. Throughout the event, participants will touch, taste, and see recipes and food products to recommend to their patients

Beyond the Prescription: Single and Dual GLP-1/GIP Receptor Agonists, Nutrition and Health

The use of incretin-based therapies—particularly glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonists—has surged in recent years, revolutionizing the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes. These medications, originally developed to support blood glucose regulation, have demonstrated significant effects on appetite control, weight loss, and cardiometabolic health. As their use expands to broader populations, healthcare professionals are increasingly faced with new challenges related to nutritional adequacy, lean mass preservation, long-term weight management, and equitable access to care.

Join us for an engaging and timely one-day conference focused on the intersection of incretin mimetics and nutrition. This event will explore the physiological and nutritional impacts of GLP1 and GIP therapies, including the risk of muscle loss, weight rebound after discontinuation, and strategies to support diet quality and long-term behaviour change. We will also examine the broader health benefits of these medications—such as cardiovascular and renal protection—and address the ethical and practical considerations of ensuring access and patient-centered care. Featuring leading experts, clinicians, and lived experience perspectives, this conference offers a comprehensive look at the evolving role of nutrition in supporting individuals using these transformative therapies.

Collaborating with Families Affected by Concurrent Disorders 2025-2026

Families are an immense resource in the care, treatment and recovery of individuals with co-occurring mental health and addiction problems. However, they often have limited resources that they need to be supportive to the ones they love. This six-week online course for health care and service providers explores the needs of families affected by concurrent disorders, as well as the strategies that health care providers can use to empower families and ensure that their experiences are positive ones.

KT Canada Seminar Series – 2026

As part of KT Canada’s mandate, we have developed and hosted the first, expert-led seminar series dedicated to current and emerging topics in knowledge translation (KT). Reception to the series has been impressive, as we continue to establish links to researchers, health care professionals, policy makers and trainees.

Advanced Imaging and Education Centre Cardiac Computed Tomography course

This intensive 5-day course is designed to provide a safe, focussed and in depth
comprehensive learning experience in Cardiac Computed Tomography (CT). The curriculum
format assumes no prior knowledge and will accommodate trainees with varying levels of
experience. Trainees will progress through the ample caseload at a comfortable pace aimed
at covering 50 cases of coronary calcium and 100 cases of cardiac CT covering a wide range
of pathology.
A unique educational environment has been created to provide state of the art facilities
for an optimal learning experience. This course is run by passionate and experienced cardiac
imagers with an extensive background in teaching cardiac imaging. The
purpose-built facility is set within a busy Academic Medical Imaging Department,
adjacent to two busy cardiac CT units (320 Multidetector CT), facilitating the viewing of
live cases during the course.
Hands-on training and comprehensive work station based case review using a systematic
method of 150
cases to include:
– Cardiac Anatomy
– Calcium score
– Post processing techniques
– CT Coronary angiography
-Coronary graft assessment
– Functional Assessment
– Non coronary cardiac findings
– CT Physics
– Radiation Dose
– Optimization of image quality
– Live Cardiac CT demonstration using Canon 320 CT

CPD Forum (2025-2026)

The CPD Forum is a collaborative space for everyone working in the field of continuing professional development and medical education more broadly. Whether your work involves program development, education consultation, accreditation, or professional services in the CPD ecosystem, this forum is designed to help you stay ahead of the curve with engaging webinars covering timely topics.

Each webinar features a thought-provoking presentation from an invited speaker, inviting dialogue around what’s new in program evaluation, artificial intelligence, accreditation best practices, and health equity research. Together, we’ll explore how these innovations shape our work as CPD professionals.

More than a webinar series, the CPD Forum is a space to connect with ideas, with colleagues, and with the future of our field. Registration is free, and all are welcome.

The program is a way to bring the U of T CPD community together.

The series dates are as follows:

Webinar #1: Monday, November 17, 2025 (12:00 – 1:00 pm ET)

Webinar #2: Monday, January 19, 2026 (12:00 – 1:00 pm ET)
