The four-week training at the Breast Cancer Center of Seoul National University Hospital (SNUH) and 10-week training at the
Department of Senology and Breast Surgery of Marien Hospital Dusseldorf Cancer Center (MHDCC) provides comprehensive
knowledge on the multi-disciplinary management of breast cancer patients.

The Breast Cancer Center of SNUH is one of the top breast cancer centres in South Korea providing multi-disciplinary
management to patients with breast disease. It is one of the high-volume centres in Seoul that up to 1,500 new cases
of breast cancer are diagnosed every year. On top of the high volume clinical activity, it serves as a role model of multi-
disciplinary team work. Through conferences and joint consultation sessions among surgeons, physicians, oncologists,
pathologists and radiologists, the Breast Cancer Center is able to perform comprehensive management of each patient, and
is the leading centre in cancer translational research. It owns a large bio-bank storing cancer/normal tissues as well as blood
from breast cancer patients.

The Breast Center of the Department of Senology and Breast Surgery at MHDCC is also a teaching centre of the Heinrich-
Heine-University. The Centre has extensive collaboration with Department of Radiotherapy, Department of Oncology,

Department of Accident and Emergency, Kwong Wah Hospital, Hong Kong

Medical simulation is increasingly used by healthcare educators worldwide. Hospitals of the Hospital Authority (HA) are
developing simulation and skills centres which aim to integrate simulation into the established curricula of training for doctors
and nurses.

Under the auspices of HA, Hong Kong Academy of Medicine and Center for Medical Simulation (CMS) in Boston, a simulation
fellowship training programme was developed with the aims of maintaining and further developing simulation-based
education in Hong Kong. Wednesday, 17 May

Selected candidates of this fellowship programme will spend two months at CMS in Boston. CMS is one of the world’s
leading providers of medical simulation education located in Boston. During two-month stay in Boston, learners participate in
an array of simulation activities. Each learner also works on at least one self-directed simulation related project.
Learners have improved debriefing skills through active involvement in the generic simulation instructor courses at CMS.
Through engaging in different inter-professional training activities, learners can also experience and appreciate different uses
and manifestations of simulation-based education throughout the health education curricula.
