The OPEN Summit

The OPEN Summit brings together researchers, educators, policy makers, healthcare professionals, knowledge users and trainees to discuss current pharmacy research and to engage in discussions about improving medication management and the health and social care system.

The 2022 Ontario Pharmacy Evidence Network (OPEN) Summit is co-hosted with the Center for Practice Excellence (CPE) at the University of Toronto's Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy. Everyone is invited to join us for our 4-day symposium. All OPEN Summit events are free and will be hosted virtually. Registration links can be found below.
