Get your students engaged with virtual patients
Keeping your medical students motivated and engaged throughout the years of studies is an enormous challenge. It's been even more difficult in the pandemic era when the sudden changes in students' and educators' daily routine caused huge disruption for schools.
The pandemic has put great pressure on medical faculties to continue delivering clinical training. Faculties switched to virtual classes, paused clinical rotations, and many medical students couldn't be exposed to real patients due to safety reasons.
In this upcoming InSimu webinar, we'll...
- guide you through the psychological and educational background of student engagement,
- present a framework for how to establish the foundation of an engaging clinical lecture even in the virtual setting,
- share some best practices on how you can foster student engagement with simulation and virtual patients.

Learn the experiences of students involved in InSimu virtual patient-based activites
"I was thrilled, the time limit and the other teams made the competition even more exciting. I would motivate every med student to participate in an event like this because the cases were totally realistic, we will surely meet similar patients."
Jason Sparks
InSimu Diagnostic Competition Winner
”A truly wonderful app that not only teaches students to think, combine their knowledge and experience but also to take into consideration the most efficient diagnostic pathway and how every decision has an impact on our patients. Used in a clinical competition, the InSimu app undoubtedly taught students the importance of cooperation, discussion and careful planning, with the patient's best interest at heart” discussion and careful planning, with the patient's best interest at heart”.

Prof. Peter Hamar, MD, PhD, Dsc, med. Habil.
Education Consultant at InSimu, Professor at Semmelweis University
Peter Hamar, MD, PhD, is full professor at Semmelweis University. He has taught pathophysiology, ECG, hematology, laboratory medicine and translational medicine for graduate students at Semmelweis and Pécs Medical Universities since 1994. His scientific interest is to understand novel mechanisms induced by modulated electro hyperthermia in triple-negative breast cancer. Furthermore, initiating from a strong background in renal transplantation, we currently try to identify key post-ischemic renal fibrosis mechanisms. Besides being a PI at Semmelweis, P. Hamar intensely collaborates with several research groups, including the Immune Disease Institute at Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA. They were first to harness RNA-interference for the kidney (PNAS). Furthermore, they demonstrated the endosomal escape of siRNA from lipid nanoparticles with high-resolution microscopy (Nat Genet). P. Hamar has co-authored 89 original papers.
