Labster's UbiSim Named a TIME Best Invention of 2024
UbiSim, the world’s first immersive virtual reality (VR) education platform built specifically for nurses, and its parent company Labster, announced today that it is on TIME’s global list of the Best Inventions of 2024 in the Education category.
“Today’s patients present with increasingly complex and severe conditions, raising the standard for nursing care and placing a greater responsibility on nurse educators to build competency and confidence in future nurses,” said Christine Vogel, MSN, RN, CHSE, CHSOS, lead nurse educator at UbiSim. “Through UbiSim’s immersive VR scenarios, educators can prepare nurses to care effectively for diverse patients with high acuity needs across the lifespan.”
“The need for expert, compassionate care is more critical than ever,” said Shawn Boom, CEO of Labster, the parent company of UbiSim. “UbiSim’s VR platform empowers nurse educators to build confidence, empathy, and hands-on skills safely, ensuring nurses are prepared to deliver quality care from day one.”
“We are honored by this incredible recognition from TIME,” Boom continued. “Our team works hard to create and deliver our UbiSim scenario-based education platform, and we’ve seen that we’re making a difference for nurses and patients. Being included on the TIME Best Inventions List is a wonderful reminder of our impact and inspires us to reach higher to achieve even more.”
To compile this year’s list, TIME solicited nominations from TIME editors and correspondents around the world and through an online application process, paying special attention to growing fields—such as health care, AI, and green energy. TIME then evaluated each contender on a number of key factors, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact.
Of the list, TIME’s editors write: “The result is a list of 200 groundbreaking inventions (and 50 special mention inventions)—including the world’s largest computer chip, a humanoid robot joining the workforce, and a bioluminescent houseplant—that are changing how we live, work, play, and think about what’s possible.”
