It gives us immense pleasure to announce the AIIMS Rishikesh Conference on Simulation in Healthcare (ARCSIM 2025), which will be held from 15 to 17 April 2025. All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh, is an Institute of National Importance that has been practising Simulation-Based Education in undergraduate and postgraduate Medical and Nursing Courses and capacity building of Health Professionals for patient care. Teaching & learning through Simulation has been brought to mainstream education and curriculum at AIIMS Rishikesh and facilitates an experiential learning strategy.

Simulation facilities can help us to move from the traditional skill teaching method of "See One, Do One, Teach One" towards a better evolved contemporary process of "See One, Practice Many, Do One". The theme of this conference is “Optimising Technique and Technology in Medical Simulation ” to focus and deliberate on the present status of Health care simulation and explore potentials and selection of feasible and most appropriate options for simulation. Experts across various disciplines would share interesting, informative, and innovative evidence on technology-dependent and technology-independent as well as hybrid simulation in medical education during the conference.

We invite you to participate in ARCSIM 2025 to gather an immersive learning experience in the Yoga Capital of the World. We look forward to your presence in the most pleasant and fascinating season of spring from 15 to 17 April 2025 at AIIMS Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, India.
