The Toronto Rehab Experience

There are many reasons to train at Toronto Rehab. We are the largest academic adult rehabilitation hospital in Canada and a fully affiliated research and teaching hospital of the University of Toronto. Located in the heart of Canada’s largest city, Toronto Rehab is a dynamic environment where researchers and trainees are taking rehabilitation science to new heights.

Our researchers lead eight cross-functional research teams. They bring to their work a rich and varied mix of academic, clinical and technical experience. Students and postdoctoral students gain a broad perspective, whether learning how to design prototypes or conduct clinical trials. They receive excellent support in turning their ideas into research projects that can ultimately help people.

We offer a number of new state-of-the-art labs, testing facilities and related support space. These facilities are all part of iDAPT, one of the world’s most advanced rehabilitation research environments. Our research is also integrated into care; research teams get to work directly with patients and to see real results.

Toronto Rehab is a friendly place ―not too big and not too small— where students and postdoctoral fellows are treated as full team members. Trainees have an opportunity to interact with potential employers because of our strong relationships with industry. Many of our former students have launched on exciting careers in rehabilitation research in Canada, the U.S., and abroad.

We welcome your interest in Toronto Rehab and the work we are doing to expand the horizons of rehabilitation science.
