The Centre for the Studies of Asphyxia and Resuscitation

CSAR also focuses its research interests on the importance of teaching and tries to identify new approaches to teach Neonatal Resuscitation skills.

At CSAR, we have a fully equipped Simulation Lab to test new approaches to Neonatal Resuscitation Teaching.
