The Idea
During medical school I was having trouble learning pharmacology, specifically all the drugs,
their mechanism of action, and contraindications. I experimented with several learning
methods all to which none really helped me learn. It wasn’t until I stumbled across “The
Learning Pyramid” where I realized I was employing all passive learning strategies. Practice has
a 75% retention rate with respect to information. Practice is the same as active game play.
Teaching others has a 90% retention rate. This means by actively playing the game and teaching
others during game play learners can expect to retain between 75-90% of the information.

I’m currently chipping away at this project in between rotations and studying
for post rotation exams. I enjoy playing the game with friends and getting their feedback to
constantly improve the game prior to selling it commercially. My goal is to have the game
market ready by Q4 2024 with release to market in Q1 2025.
