MedLab Training Institute has launched a new surgical training facility at Dubai Science Park to support hands-on, skills-based medical education for healthcare professionals across the Middle East.
The UAE-based institute specialises in cadaveric and simulation-based surgical training and is expected to train around 1,000 to 1,500 healthcare professionals annually, including consultants, specialists, and early-career practitioners.
The purpose-built centre features cadaveric laboratories, advanced audiovisual systems for live demonstrations and recording, and dedicated teaching spaces designed for immersive surgical learning. Training programmes will focus on enhancing procedural skills and advanced surgical techniques across disciplines including orthopaedics and spine, sports surgery, and maxillofacial and reconstructive procedures.
