For the next 24 hours or so, Linden Labs are providing a link from the main Second Life log-in screen to Imperial College’s virtual medical facility.
Virtual Operating Theatre (with me, Erasmus Magic)
You can link there directly via this SLURL http://slurl.com/secondlife/Medical%20School/48/133/26 . Over a thousand visitors in the last 24 hours. All very interesting; so check it out. I’ll be in-world over the next day (Erasmus Magic), so say hi if you see me. And make sure you listen to the audio on the music channel, where I’m talking with some of those involved in the development.
This is where you will arrive - Get a free set of 'scrubs' too!
Since the mid 1980s, I've worked in university and industrial research, as a manager and editor in technology and environment for an international NGO, and held senior business development, strategy, and procurement posts in industry. I hold a PhD in chemical engineering from Birmingham University, an MBA from Warwick University Business School, and an MSc in Science Communication from Imperial College. In 2008, I left industry to focus full-time on my passion for science and technology, and to share that enthusiasm with others as a freelance science communicator. I live in London with my American wife Erin.
