Abstract

A comprehensive interactive mindmap of infectious diseases was created for pre-clinical medical students, using principles of Method of Loci and spatial recall to provide a guide with options to approach differentials from clinical, epidemiological and biological organization algorithms. Striving for diversity learning platforms, the MedMicroMaps system was initially developed in 2-D PowerPoint platform with interactive hyperlinks (pilot) and converted to Oculus Quest 3 Mixed Reality application (ongoing).
