Modernizing Medical Training with VR and AR - Dr. Ryan Ribeira

We've been training medical personnel in the same way for decades, Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are poised to change that. We talk with Dr. Ryan Ribeira, founder and CEO of SimX, about the opportunity to modernize and expand our approach to medical training. We discuss how that is already happening at many of the major medical institutions in the U.S., the opportunities to expand access to training and to cover more nuanced situations that are difficult to replicate using traditional simulation techniques. That said, VR/AR training is young and far from a silver bullet. Accordingly, we explore the areas where AR/VR is not the answer. At least not yet. This episode will get you up-to-speed on the status of VR/AR medical training in the field, educate you on its strengths and weaknesses, and put you in a position to continue to explore this emerging technology.
