Chris Collins
Chris M. Collins founded the University of Cincinnati
Center for Simulations & Virtual Environments
Research (UCSIM). Her research focuses on practical
applications of simulations, virtual and augmented
reality, and “serious games” to improve teaching,
learning, and scientific collaboration.
Ian Anderson
Ian Anderson is an IT Analyst at the
University of Cincinnati Center for
Simulations & Virtual Environments
Research (UCSIM). He leads the art team
responsible for inspiring, designing,
storyboarding, and creating the visual
elements of UCSIM's research and
educational simulations. He also manages
UCSIM’s 3D Printing service, including 3D
model design and fabrication techniques to
deliver rapid prototyping capabilities for
faculty and student researchers across the
institution.

19. …and new friends
David Zlatic
My passion is to bring my own and others’
ideas to life through 3D design and
printing. After over 15 years in theatrical
lighting and scenic design, I am excited to
dive into the world of innovation.
Mission
Our mission is it to educate people who want
to make a difference, facilitate
understanding through hands-on
experiences, and collaborate to solve the
problems of an increasingly complex world.
