About INSPIRE

Logo INSPIRE
The International Network for Simulation-based Pediatric Innovation, Research, & Education is a collaborative group of simulation experts, clinicians, educators, investigators, statisticians, human factors researchers, and psychologists who have one common goal & mission.

Mission
To serve as a global community that catalyzes discoveries and promotes collaboration in simulation-based research, scholarship, and innovation

Vision
To improve the lives of children through healthcare simulation science

Core Values
COMMUNITY
We strive to create a collaborative environment with open-sharing of ideas and accessibility between members while breaking down silos.

DISCOVERY
We encourage innovation through healthy risk-taking and challenging the status quo.

INTEGRITY
We believe in transparency, trust, respect, and high standards for quality in all of our endeavors.


Our organization is built around institutions & researchers who are currently collaborating on multi-center simulation research, as well as those who have completed and/or are awaiting new projects to join.  Although we were designed to be pediatric, we now have members from multiple clinical disciplines.
