Gilles Chiniara

Gilles Chiniara has been practicing anesthesiology since 2003. He is an associate professor at Université Laval (Quebec City, Canada) and has a Master in Health Professions Education (MHPE) from the University of Illinois at Chicago, with an interest in assessment and in studying human factors and situation awareness. Dr. Chiniara has been actively involved in healthcare simulation since 2004. He is the Scientific Director of Centre Apprentiss, an interdisciplinary simulation center at Université Laval which he helped design. He has worked as educational consultant for private firms interested in venturing into simulation in healthcare, and has given talks and workshops on simulation and its pedagogy both nationally and internationally. He has collaborated, under the supervision of the Quebec College of Physicians, in establishing a provincial assessment program for practicing anesthesiologists, aimed at remediation. In addition to designing and implementing the oldest French train-the-trainer course in simulation, he has designed and implemented a graduate course on simulation given at Université Laval.
