PEORIA - The new multimillion dollar
Jump Trading Simulation and Education Center is bringing world class innovation
and improvements to town.
The Chief Medical Officer Dr. John
Vozenilek for the center said it will be a hub for developing new procedures
and medical devices. It will also be an asset for practicing doctors and
medical students in Peoria.
Dr. Vozenilek said the center is a
rare tool to have in the community and it is already drawing in top medical
professionals from all over the country. He said, "This is a rare opportunity and in fact, if you look across the nation in
what's out there in healthcare innovation and simulation, there's maybe one in
San Diego, one center in Washington D.C. and then we have here in Peoria and
it's really an exciting project to be part of."
It will be
open on April 25.
