The 2022 Annual Joint Meeting (AJM) and Young Investigators' Forum of the Canadian Society for Clinical Investigation / Société Canadienne de recherches clinique (CSCI/SCRC) and Clinician Investigator Trainee Association of Canada/Association des cliniciens-chercheurs en formation du Canada (CITAC/ACCFC) was held in Montréal, November 13-14, 2022. The theme of this year's AJM was "Strength in Perseverance" and focused on highlighting clinician-investigator trainee achievements and resilience in research engagement through recent challenging and unprecedented times. The opening remarks were given by Nicola Jones (president of CSCI/SCRC) and Heather Whittaker (past president of CITAC/ACCFC). The keynote speaker was Dr. Michael Strong, who delivered the presentation "The Future of Clinician Scientists in Canada." Dr. Caroline Quach (Université de Montréal) received the CSCI Distinguished Scientist Award and Dr. Amy Metcalfe (University of Calgary) received the CSCI Joe Doupe Young Investigator Award. Each of the clinician-scientists delivered presentations on their award-winning research. The four interactive workshops included "Social Media in Science and Medicine," "Diversity in Science and Medicine," "Running a Successful Research Program," and "Mentorship in Action." The AJM also included presentations from clinician investigator trainees from across the country. Over 90 abstracts were showcased at this year's meeting, most of which are summarized in this review. Six outstanding abstracts were selected for oral presentations during the President's Forum.
