He is actively involved with international educational network and provide credence to many courses and workshops by inputting principles of learning and educational psychology theories in action.
His main interest is in medical education research and creating stable and sustainable learning environments. His interest in airway comes from creating novel methods to learn not only practical skills of airway management but to apply cognitive skills to master difficult and challenging situations. His believes in the fact that developing airway skills management workshops and courses require cognitive task analysis approach. Simple to complex airway management requires manipulation of learned skills through clinical and simulated environment with transfer of knowledge from the workshops to workplace, a much-needed approach to close the loop of learning.
