VSimulators’ technical staff have attended a training course in Berlin to acquire new skills and knowledge in medical technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

James Bassitt, Senior Experimental Officer and Garry Massey, Experimental Officer underwent training at NIRx Medical Technologies,<\/a> where they learnt how to operate the NIRSport 2 a portable wearable device using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) for brain imaging. This is a device that will be utilised to support medical research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

James said: \u201cWe were pleased to be able to add more tools to our capabilities for VSimulators<\/a> and invest in our technical team with training and expertise so we have the skills and knowledge to continue to support academics in their groundbreaking research.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
