1. Situating Simulators : The integration of simulations in medical practice
Abstract : This study examined the practices of integrating simulators into medical education. Simulators have been observed in use to discern how medical practices are created out of the simulations. Video recordings of the simulations have been analysed, complemented by interviews with instructors and students. READ MORE

2. Haptic and visual simulation of material cutting process : a study focused on bone surgery and the use of simulators for education and training
Abstract : A prototype of a haptic and virtual reality simulator has been developed for simulation of the bone milling and material removal process occurring in several operations, e.g. temporal bone surgery or dental milling. The milling phase of an operation is difficult, safety critical and very time consuming. READ MORE
