The Medical Simulation Laboratory provides medical teaching by inserting simulation as a learning tool for medicine in a transversal way in the curriculum.
It features mannequins and equipment that allow for realistic simulations, as well as feedback in all practices. At different points in the course, students can acquire skills for the diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of patients with low- and medium-fidelity simulated practices.
