Description

METIS aims to future-proof medical education by forging competence in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), and simulations to strengthen digital readiness, ethical awareness, and social resilience among students and staff. To achieve its goal, the project partnership will develop and validate the METIS toolkit for technologically-advanced and society-oriented medical education. Moreover, it will stimulate innovation and entrepreneurship in students through challenge-based learning and co-creation of a prototype for a future master’s in medicine at UNILU.

The project will preserve Ukrainian heritage at the peripheries, particularly in the conflict-affected southern region of Odesa, by publishing  AI-ready LOD provenance for the collections of the Odesa National Fine Arts Museum.

 

Key project results:

● the METIS Toolkit

● the digital storytelling series

● Prototype on the future master’s programme in Medicine at UNILU
