The Oasis, an Online Medical Humanities Writing Group for U of T Residents and Fellows 🗓

This initiative, open to all GTA residents and fellows, aims to provide a safe and supportive space for learners to gather, reflect, and engage with peers during these challenging and unprecedented times. The group will meet via Zoom on a biweekly basis for a narrative medicine-based workshop co-facilitated by two psychiatry residents, Phoebe Bao and Nikhita Singhal. Writing prompts will be provided during the sessions; no prior experience or preparation required. Here’s a sample prompt: “If you could travel through time, write a dialogue between your current self and your one-month-ago self, about the future to come.”

For questions, suggestions, or to learn more, please contact Phoebe (phoebe.bao@mail.utoronto.ca) and Nikhita ( n.singhal@mail.utoronto.ca).

We encourage you to RSVP here https://forms.gle/H2bo9cRf7X9SEtRV9 , however drop in attendance is also welcome!

The first meeting shall take place on May 7th from 7-8:30pm.
