    DMCN Journal:
    Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology (DMCN) has defined the field of paediatric neurology and childhood-onset neurodisability for over 60 years. DMCN disseminates the latest clinical research results globally to enhance the care and improve the lives of disabled children and their families.

    Mac Keith Press:
    We exist to improve the care of disabled children by extending the knowledge and understanding of developmental medicine and paediatric neurology. We publish the journal DMCN and books in related subject areas. These are of interest to researchers, health professionals, clinicians, therapists, parents and all involved in the care of children and young people with neurodevelopmental conditions.

  • VR’s Healthcare Revolution: Transforming Medical Training at CHLA

    VR’s Healthcare Revolution: Transforming Medical Training at CHLA

    Recently, we partnered with Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) to build a VR simulation that places medical students and staff in rare yet high-risk pediatric trauma situations where split-second decisions determine whether a patient lives or dies. Thanks to the immersive power of VR, we can replicate these training scenarios in true-to-life fashion, complete with paramedics rattling off symptoms, nurses and techs urging you to make a decision, and distraught parents praying for their child’s survival.

    These visceral, interactive exercises up the stakes compared to traditional educational tools like non-VR simulations and mannequins. Powered by AiSolve and brought to life by the Hollywood VFX magic of BioflightVR, these virtual scenarios based on actual CHLA case studies let doctors and students practice and learn in realistic workplace conditions. Not only does this new innovation stand to significantly reduce the time and cost associated with mannequin-based training, it also better prepares people to respond in the real world.
