We talk a lot about sim for education or quality improvement, but less about how it can connect us as people. In this episode Ben and Eve talk to Drs Sam Smith and Vicky Tallentire, the lead authors of a new essay in IJOHS entitled “Simulation for Social Integration”. Together we explore how Sam and Vicky’s article introduces this concept of simulation for social integration, what that means, and then what that looks like through a series of case studies from sim teams around Scotland.

Together we explore how Sam and Vicky’s article introduces this concept of simulation for social integration, what that means, and then what that looks like through a series of case studies from sim teams around Scotland.
