What is the Research Competition at CUCOH?
The Canadian Undergraduate Conference on Healthcare (CUCOH) is the largest student-run undergraduate healthcare conference of its kind in Canada. The next conference will be held in January 2027 at Queen's University (Kingston). As a conference focused on health-related innovation, CUCOH is proud to offer a National-Scale Research Competition that showcases the efforts of undergraduate researchers across Canada. Our mission is to create an environment that fosters a vibrant exchange of ideas between students and industry professionals to develop leadership, inspiration, and an understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of Canadian healthcare today.
Our 2026-2027 Call for Abstracts is now closed.

This year, undergraduate students from across the country will come together at Queen’s University (Kingston) to showcase their research findings via oral or poster presentations.
Posters
Delegates interact with our presenters and ask questions about their research. The poster session is an event block dedicated to these presentations, allowing every presenter a fair opportunity to share their research.
Orals
Our oral presentations are timed presentations given to an audience consisting of general delegates, other oral presenters, and judges. Each delegate is assigned to attend at least one oral presentation session, allowing every presenter a fair opportunity to share their research.
