Exploring anatomy in mixed reality, with Mark Griswold

For hundreds of years, incoming medical students have relied on learning human anatomy by dissecting cadavers, an experience far removed from the careers that await them. With advances in mixed reality such as HoloLens, that’s changing in a huge way. For certain subjects, students who combine hands-on learning with mixed reality actually improve how quickly they can learn and how much knowledge they can retain. In this episode of Connected & Ready, Mark Griswold, Director of MRI Research and Faculty Director of the Interactive Commons at Case Western Reserve University, joins Gemma to talk about his team’s development of HoloLens Anatomy, the tradeoffs between physical and virtual learning, the impact of COVID-19 on medical education, and new opportunities in education and industry for VR technology. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Remote Assist leverages mixed reality to enable remote technicians to collaborate with experts and solve problems in real time.
