What if you could hold the future of surgical training in your hands? Turns out, you can and it is surprisingly squishy in the best way!
There’s something quietly revolutionary about Organlike. This Scotland-based company is reimagining how surgeons and medical students prepare for the operating theatre. Their synthetic organ models do not just look real, they feel real. Designed with stunning anatomical detail, these models offer a lifelike experience of handling tissues and practicing complex procedures.
For any medical campus or training program, these tools are not just helpful, they are game-changing.
Did you know?
Traditional surgical training often relies on cadavers or animals. Organlike’s models provide a reusable, ethical alternative that reduces environmental impact while making training safer and more accessible.
Why It Matters
I had the privilege of working with these models and meeting one of Organlike’s cofounders. It is rare to meet someone whose passion for improving surgical education is so contagious. The conversation was easy, inspiring, and left me with a sense of awe not just at what they have built but at how deeply they care about the future of healthcare.
This is not just about innovation for innovation’s sake. It is about saving lives and giving surgeons in training the chance to make mistakes, refine their skills, and build confidence in a safe environment before ever touching a patient.
Innovations like this remind me why I love medicine. It is not just about treating patients today but building tools for better care tomorrow.
