Simulation is emerging as an essential component of the medical school curriculum. Simulation Lab Integrated Curriculum Experience (SLICE) is a student-organized program at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine (UNC SOM) for medical students that provides skills-based training sessions to augment didactic learning experiences. During its pilot year, SLICE conducted five events with respondents completing pre-and post-surveys evaluating participants' level of comfort with procedures. There was a significant increase in self-reported confidence after each session, with students providing overwhelmingly positive feedback regarding SLICE's ability to contextualize material presented in traditional lectures.
