description Mariam Salaria, Tobi Oyewole, Sundes ShahUniversity of Liverpool, School of Medicine, Liverpool, UKWe read with great interest the article by Ginzburg et al,1 regarding small group simulation with debrief, for first and second year medical students. Having completed four years at Liverpool Medical School, we agree that small group simulation assists in consolidating the knowledge of basic sciences. The article states that the majority of students agree that simulation followed by a debrief, illustrated the clinical relevance of basic sciences. What is more, students felt that these practices provided chances for direct application of scientific knowledge, as well as simulating real world experience. The development of clinical reasoning was also noted, and as medical students ourselves, we agree that this aspect is cemented by simulation scenarios.View the original paper by Ginzburg and colleagues.
