Impact of Student Interest Groups' Simulation Activities on the Awareness of Underrepresented Specialties and Knowledge of Related Pathologies in a School With Limited Residency Programs and Exposure
This study indicates that simulation-based events can substantially enhance both interest and awareness in ENT and anesthesiology, particularly for medical students with limited exposure to the specialty. By providing immersive, hands-on experiences, these simulations offer medical students valuable insights into specialties that are typically unavailable until clinical years.
