10. The use of technology in the
medical field has become
increasingly important in
recent years, since it can benefit
humankind as a whole. Medical
innovation has the potential to offer
new ways to prevent, diagnose, and
monitor health problems, as well as
new drugs and devices to manage and
cure diseases. These innovations are
transforming existing processes and
business models to serve better
changing needs and expectations in
healthcare.
Across the world, healthcare providers,
researchers and institutions are
working to develop and integrate new
medical innovations that can improve
patient outcomes and quality of life.
One example of a leading institution to
foster medical innovation is –
UniCamillus (Saint Camillus
International University of Health
Sciences).
UniCamillus is a pre-eminent medical
university located in Rome, Italy. The
university is dedicated to providing
top-quality education in the field of
healthcare and medicine to students
from all around the world.

12. Furthermore, UniCamillus is
committed to supporting students with
disabilities and specific learning
disabilities throughout their university
experience. The university provides
one-to-one support for each student,
identifying unique solutions to enable
them to perform successfully in their
study courses and live an enjoyable
experience.
UniCamillus also takes part in
humanitarian missions in developing
countries that face structural and
infrastructural challenges, to provide
the expertise of qualified professionals
in favour of the local communities. In
February 2021, the first UniCamillus
mission took place in Cameroon,
aimed at starting academic cooperation
with hospitals already operating in the
territory. In August 2022, another
UniCamillus task force landed in
Benin, where a group of professors
dedicated themselves to treating
dermatological patients and patients
with albinism through surgical
procedures.
Medical Excellence and Innovation
Converge
UniCamillus is a private university
dedicated to medical sciences, founded
in 2018. The university takes
inspiration from Camillo de Lellis, who
revolutionized medical assistance in
the 16th century by creating and
implementing the first efficient
healthcare system. In only five years,
the university has grown to
accommodate approximately 2600
students (approximately 5000 students,
considering also CPD and
specialization courses), with the
highest percentage of international
students among European universities.
UniCamillus is a secular university
with a strong humanitarian mark. The
university is open to young people
from all over the world, regardless of
their faith. It is dedicated to promoting
‘health as its only official religion.’ The
university aims at fostering international
cooperation and integration among
different cultures and it represents indeed
a proof of how medicine can be an
efficient instrument to that goal. Its
students are prepared to engage and
become physicians focused on health
issues characteristic of developing
countries. Its motto, ‘In lumine tuo
videbimus lumen’ (In your light we will
see the light), is chosen for its evocative
power and refers to ‘knowledge.’
Unravelling the Visionary
Gianni Profita is the Rector of
UniCamillus and the committed architect
of the institution. He has been working on
creating UniCamillus for almost a decade.
Profita has given the university a strong
international profile and put in place a
program of financial and logistical
support for students from underdeveloped
countries. He believes that healthcare
colonialism should end so that
underprivileged countries might stop
depending on occasional missions of
western medical professionals. Profita is
also the President of Virgil Academy, an
archaeological research institution that is
carrying out excavation work in Etruscan
archaeological areas in Italy in
collaboration with American universities.
Elevating Medical Education by Rising
Above Adversity
UniCamillus offers high-level training in
the health sector and combines this
popular learning path with a new focus on
humanitarian interests. The university is
dedicated to students with a humanitarian,
scientific, and professional predisposition
to care for the health problems of
developing countries.
UniCamillus, which welcomes students
from more than 60 countries around the
world, was one of the first universities to
face the Coronavirus pandemic with
readiness and flexibility, given the high

15. number of foreign students who were
stranded abroad without being able to reach
Rome, UniCamillus had to carry out a
crucial transformation of teaching techniques
in order to equally guarantee everyone, in
total safety, access to one of the most
precious assets that the pandemic has
drastically affected: education.
In fact, the University reacted promptly to
the initial serious emergency by immediately
activating the UniCamillus WebApp
platform. Students did not miss a single day
of lessons and were still able to attend
remote lectures and interact with professors.
The response from the students was
outstanding: 95 percent followed and
actively attended the lectures.
The extraordinary session of online
examinations for the master's degree course
in Medicine and Surgery and the bachelor's
degree courses in the Health Professions
ended the year session with entirely positive
results. The learners, in fact, confirmed that
they did not notice any major differences
compared to the classroom examinations.
Furthermore, the Academic Staff, with a
strong spirit of service and social
responsibility, realized 'blended' training
activities for all UniCamillus learners, to
face the important challenges that the world
constantly offers.
Exam sessions were not delayed, thanks to
the use of information networks. As soon as
the emergency was over, UniCamillus was
ready to welcome back its students.
Developing International Dimension
Internationalization and cooperation
represent two of the fundamental pillars of
the University's strategy. UniCamillus is
concentrating its efforts on developing its
international dimension. The University is
also focusing on foreseeing and defining

performance of more administrative and
managerial activities. UniCamillus aims at
offering all its students (future and current,
Italian and foreign) cosmopolitan
experiences.
Professors, coordinators, and administrative
staff members are fully involved in the
internationalization project and collaborate to
enhance future exchanges and mobility
programs.
In fact, the University’s efforts in
international exchange projects are intended
not only for the student body but also meant

18. Participating in the Erasmus Program and
therefore being part of new European and non-
European collaboration programs is a great
opportunity for the University both from a
quantitative and qualitative point of view. It
represents a chance of enriching the academic and
training background. Intra-university exchanges
allow students to transfer at the end of
their experience, know-how and skills gained
abroad.
Out-going students become ‘ambassadors’ of
Italian medical excellence and of the country
itself. In order to implement international
collaboration agreements, the geographical areas
of interest identified by UniCamillus are: Europe

2014-2020) issued by the European
Commission.
The card allows students to participate
in the EU’s new Erasmus+ program,
which facilitates student mobility and
offers internationalization
opportunities.
The Erasmus+ program aims to
support the professional, educational,
and personal development of students
and graduates. It also tries to promote
equal opportunities, inclusivity,
diversity as well as fairness in every
way. Finally, it contributes to achieving
the EU goals of digital transformation,
sustainable development, and active
citizenship. The Erasmus Student
Charter reflects these values and
priorities, thus aiming to adequately
inform participants of their
entitlements and obligations and ensure
the successful implementation of their
mobility program.

Thas undergone remarkable
transformations in the 21st
century, primarily driven by the
changing academic and public health
landscapes. With the rapid
advancements in medical knowledge
and the continual evolution of
healthcare delivery models, there has
been a growing demand to reshape
medical education and align it with the
needs of future healthcare
professionals. The traditional approach
to medical education focused on
imparting knowledge and technical

32. patient exposure to bridge the gap
between classroom instruction and
real-world medical practice. These
changes in medical education aim to
produce competent and compassionate
healthcare professionals who are
equipped to navigate the complexities
of modern healthcare systems and
provide patient-centred care.
Integration of Technology
Technology has revolutionized medical
education, offering new opportunities
for learning and skill development.
Virtual reality, simulation-based
training, and online learning platforms
are increasingly being incorporated
into medical curricula. These tools
provide immersive and interactive
learning experiences, allowing students
to practice clinical skills, explore
complex medical scenarios, and
enhance their decision-making abilities
in a controlled environment. The
integration of technology in medical
education not only improves
knowledge retention but also prepares
students for the technologically
advanced healthcare landscape they
will encounter in their careers.
Interprofessional Education
The traditional model of healthcare
delivery focused on individual
disciplines working in silos. However,
the complexity of modern healthcare
demands collaborative and team-based
approaches. Interprofessional
education (IPE) aims to prepare future
healthcare professionals to work
effectively in interdisciplinary teams.
Medical students now engage in
educational experiences with students
from other healthcare disciplines, such
as nursing, pharmacy, and social work.
Through shared learning experiences,
collaborative problem-solving, and
team-based simulations, students
develop an understanding of each
profession's roles, fostering effective
communication and mutual respect.
Emphasis on Patient-centred Care
Patient-centred care has become a
central tenet of healthcare, and medical
education is adapting to this paradigm
shift. Medical schools now prioritize
teaching students to understand and
address patients' unique needs, values,
and preferences. Communication
skills, empathy, and cultural
competence are integrated into the
curriculum to ensure that future
physicians can establish strong doctor-
patient relationships and provide
patient-centred care. Additionally,
students are exposed to community-
based learning experiences that allow
them to understand the social
determinants of health and the impact
of healthcare disparities on patient
outcomes.
Competency-Based Education
Competency-Based education has
emerged as a prominent approach in
medical schools, reflecting a shift away
from a purely knowledge-based model.
This innovative educational paradigm
places a strong emphasis on the
demonstration of specific skills and
abilities rather than solely focusing on
the acquisition of information. In
competency-based education, medical
students are evaluated based on their
proficiency in critical areas such as
clinical reasoning, procedural skills,
professionalism, and teamwork.
This approach to assessment enables
educators to provide tailored feedback
and guidance to students, ensuring they
have a comprehensive understanding
of their strengths and areas for
improvement. By identifying specific
competencies that need further
development, educators can create
targeted learning opportunities to
enhance student's skills and bridge any
gaps in their knowledge or abilities.
Competency-Based education also
enhances the overall accountability of
medical education programs. It ensures
that graduates possess the essential
competencies required for competent
clinical practice, promoting patient
safety and quality care. This model
recognizes that being a successful
healthcare professional involves more
than just academic achievements—it
encompasses the practical application
of knowledge, effective
communication, collaboration, and
professionalism.
Lifelong Learning and Continuing
Professional Development
In the rapidly evolving field of
medicine, continuous learning is
essential for healthcare professionals to
stay abreast of new discoveries and
advancements. Medical education
programs now emphasize the
importance of lifelong learning and
provide opportunities for ongoing
professional development. Continuing
medical education courses,
conferences, online resources, and
mentorship programs enable
physicians to enhance their knowledge,
refine their skills, and adapt to
changing healthcare landscapes
throughout their careers.
The shifting academic and public
health environments in the 21st century
have necessitated significant changes
in medical education. Integration of
technology, interprofessional
education, emphasis on patient-centred
care, competency-based education, and
lifelong learning are among the key
trends shaping medical education
today. As medical schools adapt their
curricula to these changing paradigms,
future healthcare professionals will be
better equipped to meet the evolving
needs of patients and deliver high-
quality care in the dynamic healthcare
landscape of the 21st century.
