Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Simulation! The deans talk about its use in medical education regularly. But how can it be used to teach the basic sciences to first- and second-year medical students? This article will help answer that question by providing information about various types of simulation activities being used in medical education and examples of their application to basic science education. The next step depends on your creativity.
