Simulation has evolved over the centuries but has not been applied to medicine until the 20th century with the introduction of virtual reality and computers. Prior to the 20th century simulation took the forms of physical models and cadavers. With the introduction of flight simulation there was an effort to move similar approaches into medicine. This was pushed by the demands of minimally invasive surgery and the introduction of robotics in surgery. More recently we have seen the introduction of cognitive task analysis to further define how we measure the success of the introduction of simulation to surgical procedures. In the 21st century in addition to cognitive task analysis tools we are beginning to see the migration of advanced intelligence tools to simulation. This is the introduction of algorithms that allow us to model the actions of a human as an adversary or in the medical case the actions of a surgeon in the operating room. We are just at the beginning of how we will use adversarial reasoning in the medical environment and in high risk time constrained situations like surgery. This talk will have as its goal to the introduction of many more questions than answers for the audience to solve in the upcoming decades. Its further goal is to unite the Italian community of scientists with the Americans in exploring solutions to these problems.

Prof.Rosen visit to Simulation Team in Italy provides the opportunity to organize a Meeting for presenting advance in M&S applied to Medicine in Joint Cooperation with IOR and University of Bologna.
