In this episode, we sit down to discuss all things simulation with Dr Libby Thomas, Emergency Medicine Consultant and Senior Clinical Lecturer in Emergency Medicine and Medical Education.
We discuss that “Simulation is a technique—not a technology…” Gaba 2004 as well as some of the educational theories and research in the field as well as what we as both learners and faculty can do to get the most from simulation-based medical education.
