On 27 November 2025, RCSI SIM Centre for Simulation Education and Research (RCSI SIM) held its first “RCSI SIMposium: Simulation & Innovation Gathering” at 26 York Street, Dublin, Ireland. The event opened with a welcome from Professor Claire Condron, and the SIMposium offered a day-long forum to explore how simulation can drive innovation in medical devices.

The S3 Conference 2025, hosted by the SingHealth Duke-NUS Institute of Medical Simulation (SIMS) and co-organised with SESAM and SimGHOSTS, welcomed more than 500 delegates from across the Asia–Pacific region in one of its most successful editions to date. 

At JoHS, we value a global reach in simulation practices. This recent conference in Lanzhou, Gansu province identified the extraordinary scale on which many simulation practices are implemented in China.
