MERI receives recognition as a Simulation Center of Excellence

The Medical Education & Research Institute in Memphis has been conducting high-tech training for physicians from all over the country and the world since its inception 15 years ago as a joint venture of Baptist Memorial Healthcare Corp., Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare Corp. and Semmes-Murphey Neurologic and Spine Institute. The Center, which features METIman, BabySIM and PediaSIM among other METI products, was recently designated as a Simulation Center of Excellence by Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen and the Tennessee state legislature and this week was featured in The Commercial Appeal, Memphis’ leading daily newspaper.
