The Academic Affairs Committee's mandate is to ensure that graduate students and postdoctoral fellows enrolled in the CHU Sainte-Justine Research Centre have optimal conditions for the success of their studies. The committee makes recommendations to the Research Directorate with regard to minimum student stipends, internship programs and scholarship competitions, the implementation of structuring events for recruitment, and student success. Committee members also act as resource persons for matters of ethics and integrity of research, conflicts of interest and harassment prevention.
