FACULTY OF MEDICAL SCIENCES The Cato Burton Simulation Suite

The Arnott Cato Foundation and the Peter Moores Trust donated BBD 120,000 for the development of a simulation suite, including the purchase of a Simulation Mannequin, to be used in the training of clinical students. The Cato Burton Simulation Suite, reflecting the new name of the Foundation, was officially opened on May 6, 2022 in the Errol Waldron Clinical Skills Building. A Resusci Anne mannequin has been added to the already existing Sim Junior and Sim Baby simulation mannequins at the teaching complex. Dr Keisha Thomas-Gibson and the team of students who conducted a live simulation exercise during the ceremony were congrat- ulated for an excellent presentation. Both Drs Thomas- Gibson and Lashley were congratulated for the work leading up to the Simulation Suite opening. Simulation facilitates the development of skills related to physical examinations, procedures, diagnostics, therapeutics, resuscitation, critical thinking, clinical reasoning, problem-solving and teamwork. FACULTY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES Department of Economics Chartered Financial Analyst (Cfa) Atlantic Islands Research Challenge Competition This annual intercollegiate competition offers students the unique opportunity to apply their classroom knowledge to real-world practice in equity research. Each partici- pant is evaluated based on their analytical abilities, valua- tion, report writing and presentation skills. The 2021/2022 team consisted of students from the Department of Economics and the Sagicor Cave Hill School of Business and Management. The team easily advanced to the sub-re- gional competition held virtually, and performed creditably even though they did not advance to the next round of competition.
