What does simulation training in healthcare have to do with aviation? And how can simulation training in so-called 'human factors' lead to better patient outcomes in endoscopy? Some of the questions covered in this conversation of Trainee Associate Editor of Frontline Gastroenterology Johnathan Segal with Dr Srivathsan Ravindran and Dr Siwan Thomas-Gibson, both from the Wolfson Unit for Endoscopy, St Mark’s Hospital, London.

They also discuss a variety of simulation modalities including in-situ simulation and how this fits into the UK-based ISREE strategy.
