Listen to Brad Scoggin and Will Stackable discuss how the evolution of the 'VR Patient' concept is poised to scale up high-quality medical education for medical, nursing, and allied healthcare students.

We connected with hundreds of medical, nursing, and allied healthcare students at our Experience Zone at Government Stanley Medical College in Chennai. Students enjoyed performing hands-on medical procedures like ECGs and catheterizations.
Next week, join us at Sri Ramachandra Institute Of Higher Education and Research in Chennai from June 27th to 29th, 2024. We'll have our Experience Zone set up for students and faculty to explore the MediSim VR platform. Hope to see you there!
