Inside the HoloCamera: How 3D Capture is Transforming Medical Training
Medical educators at the University of Maryland, Baltimore led by Dr. Cheri Hendrix and computer scientists at the University of Maryland, College Park led by Amitabh Varshney collaborate to teach physician assistants with the help of an immersive virtual reality tool called HoloCamera.The HaloCamera is a volumetric capture studio, which is the same technology used in virtual reality and augmented reality games and providing character modeling in movies. This revolutionary technology uses 300 cameras and AI-powered data to create lifelike 3D simulations, helping medical students and professionals experience patient care in an entirely new way. Watch as virtual patients come to life, allowing physician assistant students at the University of Maryland School of Graduate Studies, located in Baltimore, to see real-time anatomy and symptoms up close, and take control of their medical education like never before.#Halocamera #MedicalTraining #3DTech #AIinMedicine

- 3:37Luana Colloca, MD, PHD, MS: Researcher of the YearLuana Colloca, MD, PhD, MS, first became fascinated with the placebo effect and pain management when she was in medical school.“I was captivated by the brain’s functions, especially how little we know about its role in healing and how it influences the perception of pain-related symptoms,” said Colloca, professor, Department of Pain and Translational Symptom Science, University of Maryland School of Nursing (UMSON), and University of Maryland MPower professor.Colloca is an international expert in the fields of placebo effect and nocebo effect — the opposite of the placebo effect in which instead of having a positive response, patients have negative outcomes to treatments that cannot be explained by the treatments’ pharmacologic effects — and mechanisms of pain modulation. She has secured multiple National Institutes of Health awards, including several R01 grants and an R21 grant. For her pioneering work, Colloca has been named the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) 2024 Founders Week Researcher of the Year.Learn more: https://www.umaryland.edu/founders/founders-week-award-winners/researcher-of-the-year/
