The TSFRE believes that cardiothoracic surgery is an ideal specialty to demonstrate and evaluate the use of advanced simulation and other innovative approaches to quality and safety as a model for other highly technical medical specialties. Simulation has had a tremendously positive impact on education and certification in other areas of human activity where teams interact with technology in high risk environments.

The TSFRE Education Committee requests proposals for grants to support the demonstration study for the application of simulation in thoracic surgery education. More...
