We are accustomed to applying the scientific method and quality improvement models to deliver better care.

He recently moved from Canada, where he ran the University of Alberta\u2019s training program in paediatric critical care. Charles also established a lab focusing on improving learning through the use of three-dimensional visualisation techniques such as 3D printing and virtual reality. He is interested in opportunities for better design within our hospital environment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cindy Chen<\/strong> is an industrial designer in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Alberta. Her passion is model-making and transforming 2D elements into 3D. Cindy hopes to help others who are less familiar with cardiology through 3D visualisation. Her motivation comes from seeing everybody\u2019s amazement when holding a realistic 3D heart model.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nicole Pernal<\/strong> is a design team member in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Alberta. She specialises in Visual Communication Design and aims to improve the experiences of learners, educators, patients, and clinicians through multidisciplinary design. Nicole takes a user-centred and problem-solving approach to her work to achieve longevity and meaningful designs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are all problem solvers.
