The FIRST60

The FIRST60 represents an inter-professional team of clinicians, researchers and trainees seeking to understand and improve care from time of injury or illness to acute resuscitation. We specialize in resuscitation sciences and prehospital research, ranging from traumatic injuries to cardiac arrests. 

Why the FIRST60?

In Ontario, prehospital, trauma and resuscitation scientists and teams are spread across several institutions with diverse interests and resources. While each successful in their own right, a concerted effort to bridge these silos through connection has been vital to move us forward in becoming a world leader in prehospital, trauma and resuscitation sciences.
