The Surgical and Clinical Skills Centres, within the University of Dundee’s School of Medicine, form the Dundee Institute for Healthcare Simulation capitalising on combined expertise and experience of providing simulation-based medical education spanning 30 years.

Current activity includes all aspects of healthcare provision including procedural, communication and non-technical skills. Significant recent advances have been made in developing cadaveric models for skills training and image-guided therapies, and developing national programmes for clinical and communication skills.
