About the Author

Norbert Banhidy is a doctor working in London. He graduated from Imperial College London where he developed a keen interest in medical education and has been involved in undergraduate clinical teaching ever since. His work with medical students has ranged from local clinical skills tutoring in a hospital setting, to setting up a national revision course to help final year medical students excel in their exams and later clinical career.

David Zhang is a doctor working in London, graduating from Imperial College London. Continuing the strong foundation of teaching fostered at university, he has continued to teach clinical skills, through bedside teaching and emergency simulation. He is pursuing a career in medicine, and believes strongly in the value of marrying both simulation and textbook learning to prepare both students and doctors for the clinical setting.
