U of Keele offering virtual patient technology for license
A message from Clymer.."CC"..Conrad Clyburn to all members of Medical Modeling & Simulation on MedTechIQ!
Colleagues,
As reported in Science/Business...The University of Keele (United Kingdom) is looking to license a proprietary IT system developed by researchers there that generates computer characters, such as virtual patients and doctors, which pharmacists in training can interact with to improve their communication and decision-making skills. The technology is currently geared towards simulations of conditions such as dyspepsia and hypertension, but can also be tailored for training in a variety of areas, according to university official Luke Bracegirdle. The system has already been licensed non-exclusively by Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, for use in its undergraduate pharmacy program.
"Using the Virtual Patient allows us to explore the full patient consultation and to let the student learn from mistakes in a safe environment that would not be possible in real life, says co-inventor Stephen Chapman, of Keele’s School of Pharmacy...

Nicely done resource. I like their use of speech recognition. Does anyone know what speech recognition engine they used?
