These simulations were used to test Physicians as part of their application process to become members of the ABODM. In 2016, Dr. Art Cooper presented a poster that was co-authored by Dr. Slone and others, entitled, Creation of a Simulation Examination Using High-Fidelity Human Manikins for Board Certification at the International Preparedness and Response to Emergencies and Disasters 4th International Conference (IPRED IV), in Tel Aviv, Israel.
