About

Dr. Teresa Chan is an associate professor at McMaster University. Locally, she is the Assistant Dean, Faculty Development & Program Director of the Clinician Educator Diploma program. She serves on the editorial boards of four journals including: Academic Medicine, Journal of Graduate Medical Education, AEM Education and Training, and Canadian Journal of Emergency Medicine.

Dr. Chan completed her medical school at Western University, and then completed her residency in the RCPSC emergency medicine training at McMaster University. Most recently, she completed a Masters of Health Profession Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Dr. Chan is well known for her online education research and efforts. She is one of the founding members of the CanadiEM website, the MedEdLIFE research collaborative, and a key member of the METRIQ Study Group. Dr. Chan is also interested in developing medical education innovations (and evaluating them!). For instance, she has worked on a pre-cursor competency-based clinical education program called the McMaster Modular Assessment Program (McMAP), which began as a fellowship program but now is helping to inform best practices with Canada's advent into the CBME.

Her current programs of research include:
- contextualized clinical decision making
- improving knowledge translation using education theory and innovation
