About the Student Union

The Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology Student Union (LMPSU) serves as the representing body for all undergraduate students enrolled in the Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology Specialist Program, or any students who enrol in a pathobiology course.

The executive team, a group of elected individuals motivated to improve and enrich the undergraduate experience, act as your go-to ambassadors for information, ideas, and support; we are dedicated to providing you with the support and services you need to make your academic career something you cherish.  

To that end, the LMPSU acts as: 

  • Your sounding board; we want to make sure your questions and concerns are brought to the administration and that your comments about the program are heard 
  • Your academic support team; we offer past tests for almost all LMP courses, and organize academic seminars meant to engage you in challenging ethical and scientific issues 
  • Your social organizers; our social team works to provide you with engaging activities and awesome apparel to welcome you into the pathobiology family! 
  • Your collaborators; we want to hear your ideas and work with you to implement them, be they academic or social in nature 

The LMPSU also organises the annual Undergraduate Research Conference.
