    Christian Hanson is your "typical monster kid". He grew up wanting to make monsters, and he did for years. With Clay under his fingertips and foam latex cooking in the oven. Now he works for the Mayo clinics "Anatomic Modeling Unit (AMU). as a digital artist. He still uses traditional skills daily, but he has taken that foundation to new heights, and he wants you to as well. So take a listen to this episode and follow the journey with him.

    Ep.42 A.I. in Healthcare Simulation w/ Jeff Adams

    Ep.42 A.I. in Healthcare Simulation w/ Jeff Adams

    Well, this episode is a great one! Something seems to come up almost every day. Artificial Intelligence (A.I.). Is it here to take over the world? Is it the next Skynet? Is it a fab and will go the way of the furby? Well this episode, we bring on Jeff Adams to talk about it, and he has gone DEEP with A.I. and thinks you should too, but with caution and intelligence. I will tell you I learned more that I now use in my day to day practice with this episode than any other episode I can think of. So strap in and take a listen, but listen carefully and with an open mind. if you do I really think you will get a lot out of this one!
    Thank you, as always, for listening. Don't forget to look at our websites and support the podcast by purchasing our merch or telling your vendors to sponsor an episode! This is how we will be able to continue to bring you great content.

    In this episode, we welcome back Dr. Beau Christian to continue to talk about the disaster that happened to his nursing school. If you didn't catch it, go back and listen. No, actually, you will want to watch this one on the YouTube channel. 
    This time, Beau talks about his experience with the rebuild. The good, the bad and the overlooked. So kick back and hear the "Rest of the Story" (My tip of the hat to Paul Harvey)

    Ep. 39 Native American Health Simulation Center

    Ep. 39 Was out final we recorded while in Orlando for #IMSH2023. We had the pleasure to have Naomi Bender, and Carrie Gigray on to talk about the Native American Health Center they are building in Washington state to better educate and inform and take care of Native American people in that area. They have an IPE approach to medical education from a perspective that most medical education misses. So sit back and listen to this awesome episode.
