Researchers at Gifu University’s Graduate School of Medicine in Japan have developed a robotic patient that can respond verbally to questions about how it feels and move its body in ways that exhibit the symptoms of its ailment. It looks like a human woman and has body parts that can move in accordance with its symptoms. This will help medical students gain experience in diagnosing diseases, and hopefully will encourage them against being such dismissive jackasses. [GT]
