In Memoriam: Dr. Lindsay Leigh Kimmett

The LINDSAY Virtual Human project carries its name in memory of Dr. Lindsay Leigh Kimmett, who was a student of Undergraduate Medical Education in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Calgary. At the prime of her medical training, Lindsay tragically passed away in 2008.

Lindsay’s parents — Dianne and Kelly — and family have been extremely supportive and enthusiastic about teaching & learning, and education of medical doctors and researchers, in particular. It had always been Lindsay’s vision to make the world a better place.

The LINDSAY Virtual Human project, which was initiated in 2009, is dedicated to Lindsay Kimmett. We are all highly inspired by Lindsay’s passion for life, and we hope to continue her vision and her desire to make our world a better place. Through our contributions and commitment to exceptional medical education we strive to continue Lindsay’s legacy.
