This bicentennial year, our thoughts turn to the next century of medical and health sciences education at McGill. How is the Institute of Health Sciences Education raising the bar in research and scholarship? How is the Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning harnessing new technologies and driving innovation? And what are the lessons we can learn from other sectors, such as aerospace and biotech?Ìý
