This issue highlights how the Centre for Healthcare Simulation is advancing healthcare education through innovation, collaboration, and immersive learning across the Asia-Pacific region. The newsletter features CHS&#8217;s growing partnership discussions with the Singapore Red Cross on low-cost, technology-enabled training solutions, its interactive showcase at the NUS Open House, and the successful 12<sup>th<\/sup> run of its Fundamentals &amp; Debriefing course for healthcare educators. It also spotlights the people behind the simulation work, including medical simulation technologist Johanis Bin Jahidin, whose role bridges clinical realism and technical delivery, and showcases CHS&#8217;s expanding international engagement through visits from students and faculty from Singapore, Japan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Malaysia, and NUS School of Computing. The issue closes with upcoming initiatives, including a Design for Healthcare &amp; 3D Printing course in August 2026 and the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> AsiaSPEC conference in Davao City in September 2026, reinforcing CHS&#8217;s role as a hub for educational collaboration and innovation.
