The KN Cheung SK Chin Simulation Centre ('InterSim') was established in 2021, to champion interprofessional simulation-based healthcare education. The InterSim Centre provides a dedicated space for medical, pharmacy, nursing, midwifery and dentistry students to learn together in interactive scenarios that replicate real clinical practice. Since then, over 7,000 students have benefited from training in this state-of-the-art facility.

This is a new and innovative post with the successful candidate collaborating with and co-designing interprofessional simulation teaching with an interprofessional team of Fellows and other key partners such as patient and students. Clinical experience as a pharmacist prescriber, in particular, is desirable to help shape clinical teaching in this area.
