Mario Luzzatto Simulation Center

The Mario Luzzatto Simulation Centre at Âé¶¹´«Ã½AVÔÚÏß¿´ University is the only facility in Italy to hold Full SESAM accreditation (European Society for Simulation in Medicine).

Spread across more than 3,000 m², innovation and technology combine to offer a comprehensive, 360° training experience. The campus houses a high‑fidelity Simulation Centre, an Anatomy Lab, a Congress Centre and an experimental Training and Skill CUBE. State‑of‑the‑art equipment, innovative teaching methods and highly realistic simulation environments provide outstanding experiential and reflective learning for students and health professionals.

Simulation Centre

The Centre’s facilities support both technical and non‑technical activities (teamwork, leadership, communication), using high‑fidelity simulators, virtual reality, screens for live streaming surgical procedures from operating theatres and an auditorium for plenary sessions.

La tecnologia innovativa viene utilizzata per condurre attività didattiche sperimentali in medicina e chirurgia e per studiare l’anatomia attraverso un catalogo virtuale di anatomia in 3D.

ANATOMY LAB

The Anatomy Lab was established to deepen the study of anatomy and to develop new surgical techniques and medical devices. In a safe, realistic environment it supports training, continuing education and experimentation.

The laboratory has eight equipped stations for surgical practice, complete with motors, endoscopy instruments and live‑streaming systems. Anatomical specimens (fresh‑frozen, untreated) are sourced exclusively from the United States and are accompanied by clinical documentation, serological analyses and the medical history of each donor.

The CUBE

Opened in 2019, the CUBE offers students and professionals the opportunity to practise with the most advanced technologies according to their available time.

Available equipment includes:
Virtual‑reality arthroscopy simulators and laparoscopic box trainers
Ultrasound scanners for abdomen and chest, and ultrasound‑guided venous access
Airway and emergency management simulators
Suturing and surgical skills stations
The modern, fully equipped facility is also suitable for innovation labs, research projects and clinical quality improvement activities.


The Simulation Center

SESAM accreditation recognises the quality of simulation‑based training programmes and is founded on best practices and internationally shared guidelines.

The Centre is unique in Italy, integrating the hospital’s clinical experience, the University’s scientific research and the training excellence of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½AVÔÚÏß¿´ Training Centre. Thanks to rapid technological advances, it is now possible to recreate realistic clinical scenarios and the interaction dynamics between healthcare professionals and patients.

The Centre’s facilities support both technical and non‑technical activities (teamwork, leadership, communication), using high‑fidelity simulators, virtual reality, screens for live streaming surgical procedures from operating theatres and an auditorium for plenary sessions.

Available space

  • 3 high-fidelity simulation rooms
  • 2 medium-low-fidelity simulation rooms
  • 4 multifunctional rooms for education and/or debriefing
  • 3 control booths
  • 1 physiotherapy lab
  • 1 anatomy lab
  • 3 conference rooms with seating capacity for up to 500 people

The Luzzatto family’s commitment to the Simulation Center

The Simulation Centre is dedicated to Mario Luzzatto, an internationally renowned manager, artist and philanthropist who passed away in 2012. Through a generous donation to Âé¶¹´«Ã½AVÔÚÏß¿´, Luzzatto sought to support scientific research and medical education. Âé¶¹´«Ã½AVÔÚÏß¿´ University has named this innovative centre in his honour, a lasting legacy for new generations of health professionals.
