Rui Jin Hospital

A partnership between the Rui Jin Hospital Burn Unit in Shanghai and the Ross Tilley Burn Centre in Toronto has lead to the implementation of a burn database in Shanghai. Initial analysis of this data in the summer of 2004 showed a very high incidence of scald burns in the pediatric population. The next stage is to use the findings of this study to design a pediatric burn prevention project in Shanghai. The successful candidate will work closely with surgeons at Rui Jin Hospital Burn unit to design and evaluate a pediatric burn prevention project.
