Ep. 36 Simulation in Amsterdam w/ Elbert Waller - After the Press Box Closed #IMSH2023

Episode 36 was a real treat for us. We have known Mr. Ebert Waller for many years, most of that time at a great distance, but we were able to sit down and chat about starting and building a simulation program in Amsterdam, and the differences in both medicine and simulation in Amsterdam. He has an amazing team and was sad to leave them, but since this recording he and his lovely family have moved to Canada to support his wife's education. 

So take a listen to this awesome episode from just outside the #IMSH2023 hall, after the Press Box closed. 

Thank you as always for listening.

Ep 32 was a delight to record. We were fortunate enough to have on Past President of the SSH, Juli Maxworthy, as well as Incoming President Jayne Smitten! This is another episode that was recorded LIVE of the show floor of #IMSH2023.

EP. 28 IMSH2023 interview 2: Corporate Roundtable with Ryan Ribeira, Founder and CEO of Sim-X

We take some time to talk to Dr. Ryan Ribeira who is the outgoing chair of the SSH Corporate Round Table. What is the corporate round table, first off, there are no knights involved. Sad right? What the corporate round table is, is a place where vendors can interact with SSH, and have a two-way dialog about what the future of healthcare looks like, and what are the needs of all of us are in the future. It’s our voice to vendors, and vendors' toys, through the society. Dr. Ribeira also talks about the importance of networking, SimVentors Showcase@ IMSH, what is was like to found Sim X and much more. So take a listen to a great guy, and enjoy.
