The CHEST Air Tank winner is revealed!
The Air Tank grant challenge grew out of a need for improved digital learning formats during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Finalists Bhavin Dalal, MD, FCCP; Kevin Deasy, MBBCh, BSc; and William Kelly, MD, FCCP, went head-to-head in competing for a $15,000 grant to bring their distance learning proposals to life.
Congratulations to Dr. Kelly for his winning concept, “CHEST Choices.” In this video, he explains how his proposed platform would teach medical knowledge or procedural skills using cinematic storytelling that branches into different directions based on interactive user choices.
The Air Tank judges were Hans J. Lee, MD; Amy Morris, MD, FCCP; David A. Schulman, MD, MPH, FCCP; and Robb Rabito, CHCP.
