Current Research

The mission of the Simulation Center at Fairbanks Hall includes participation in research to advance healthcare simulation, education, and ultimately patient care. We have and continue to participate in single and multi-center investigational trials, to include the following:

• AHRQ R18 Grant Funded LEADS Project
• IUH Values Grant for Funded IU Talk Study
• IUH Values Grant for Education Funded Ultrasound Study
• IU Emergency Medicine Advocacy Grant Funded Socio-economic Bias Study
