As I write this, SSH just put the wraps on an incredible SimOps 2026. While every simulation program depends on the simulation operation specialists who create the cases, apply the moulage, run the sessions, and make sure that all needed equipment is functioning in top form, these vital personnel often go unseen.
Greetings everyone! This month, I would like to focus on a new initiative within SSH that represents a massive advance in how we digest and synthesize new discoveries in our field: the International Liaison Council on Simulation (ILCOS).
It’s incredible to think that just weeks ago, our global community came together at IMSH 2026 to learn, collaborate, and push the boundaries of healthcare simulation. The energy was undeniable. The momentum was powerful. And the impact continues to grow.
