On 19 March, Mr. Geoffrey T. Miller, Senior Research Scientist and Division Chief of the Medical Modeling, Simulation, Informatics and Visualization (MMSIV) team presented a virtual interactive session entitled “Joint Medical Simulation Instructional / Operational Methods (JMedSIM)” at the 2021 International Meeting for Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH). Geoff co-presented this session with Dr. Joseph Lopreiato, Uniform Services University (USU) Director, Val G. Hemming Simulation Center, Mr. Ruben Garza, Defense Health Agency (DHA) J-7/Chief, Defense Medical Modeling and Simulation Office (DMMSO), Ms. Daphne McGill, DHA J-7/DMMSO Program Analyst, Mr. Joseph Ruisi, Deputy Chief, Air Force Medical Modeling and Simulation Training (AFMMAST), and Mr. Thomas Soto, Army Central Simulation Committee (CSC) Executive Council Representative.

While the IMSH Conference was held virtually this year, there was no shortage of active participation and robust collaborations amongst its partners. This particular session focused on discussing the background of the JMedSIM effort and MHS simulation programs, the JMedSIM project development goals and current plan of action, along with development efforts to create a joint services, standardized medical modeling and simulation curriculum for all military medical simulation specialists, educators and operators.

Team TATRC was grateful to take part in this important annual simulation event and looks forward to reconnecting at IMSH in person in 2022!
