INTRODUCTION: Published research shows that surgical simulation trainers provide effective and safe ways to acquire technical surgical motor skills. However, few published studies conclude that these motor skills transfer from simulation to operative environments. The purpose of this study is to measure surgical motor skill transfer from training simulators to ex-vivo tissue models using brain activation and task performance metrics.
