Biography

Dr. Stephen Ojo is a UK-based Emergency Medicine clinician and medical educator with a strong portfolio in simulation, digital education, and technology-enhanced learning.

He works as a Specialty Doctor in Emergency Medicine at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust and serves as an Honorary Assistant Professor at the University of Nottingham School of Medicine. Dr Ojo leads initiatives in Technology Enhanced Education within Undergraduate Medical Education (UMED), where he develops innovative learning systems that integrate simulation, immersive technology, and digital platforms to enhance clinical training. His work focuses on improving learner engagement, bridging clinical practice with emerging technologies, and advancing simulation-based education across undergraduate and postgraduate healthcare training. He has a particular interest in the use of Augmented Reality, Artificial Intelligence, and immersive simulation for clinical education and multidisciplinary team training. Dr Ojo has presented internationally on the role of immersive technologies in healthcare education and has led workshops and keynote sessions on AI and digital transformation in medicine. In addition to his clinical and academic work, he designs and delivers advanced training programmes in emergency, acute, and resuscitation medicine. These programmes emphasise high-fidelity simulation, human factors, and procedural skills development for clinicians across emergency and acute care pathways. Dr Ojo collaborates with international partners, educational institutions, and healthcare organisations to develop innovative training programmes that improve clinical performance, patient safety, and workforce capability in emergency and acute care systems.
