Simulation

SUMMIT's simulation projects are paving the way for the future of learning in medicine. Virtual environments can give learners authentic experiences, replacing vulnerable patients with expendable pixels for safety and practice. Our simulations range from virtual patient encounters to procedures (surgical and clinical) to virtual worlds for team problem solving.
