“Surgical Simulation As A Basic Science: A New Frontier of Research” by Dr. William Clifton

Innovation Grand Rounds Bleeding Edge: Dr. William Clifton | May 29, 2020 Anatomical knowledge is a key tenet in both graduate medical and surgical education. Classically, these principles are taught in the operating room during live surgical experience. This puts both the learner and the patient at a disadvantage due to environment, time, and safety constraints. Educational adjuncts such as cadaveric courses and surgical skills didactics have been shown to improve resident confidence and proficiency in both anatomical knowledge and surgical techniques. However, the cost‐effectiveness of these courses is a limiting factor and in many cases prevents implementation within institutional training programs. Procedural simulation using “desktop” three‐dimensional (3D) printing and basic principles of material science provides novel and cost‐effective methods for instruction of surgical skill, and forms a new frontier of translational research. Dr. William Clifton serves as a chief resident physician in the Department of Neurological Surgery at Mayo Clinic Florida, and the co-founder and chief design officer of the B.R.A.I.N. (Biotechnology Research and Innovation Neuroscience) Laboratory. Dr. Clifton established an institutional 3D printing laboratory for educational research at Mayo Clinic Florida, generating new innovations in surgical simulation for resident objective skill assessment and technique instruction. His personal goal is to establish high-fidelity simulation as an educational standard for surgical resident instruction in order to maximize the cost-effectiveness of trainee education as well as patient safety. Innovation Grand Rounds features prominent speakers and successful medical innovators who will challenge and inspire Carle Illinois students and faculty. “These sessions will bring together the whole college as a community, creating a collaborative networking event around medicine innovation,” Stephen Boppart, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Associate Dean and Chief Diversity Officer for Carle Illinois College of Medicine said. “It’s an opportunity to come together, get inspired by a topic and a speaker, and then to have conversations with people you might not regularly interact with.”
