We need a secure repository to allow people to donate their data to science (instead of their body). There is a long tradition of donating your body to science, but today, with the increasing availability of virtual learning platforms, fewer and fewer medical schools now accept such donations. Generating good case materials such as virtual scenarios, with realistic imagery, lab and diagnostic data, on the other hand, is increasingly challenging because widespread uptake of such virtual scenarios has left clinical instructional designers with a widening gap between demand and the ability to respond to that demand.
Notes: We welcome collaborative input and commentary on this concept.
