His Highness Prince Karim Al-Hussaini, Aga Khan IV, 49th hereditary Imam of the Shia Ismaili Muslims passed away peacefully in Lisbon on 4 February 2025, aged 88, surrounded by his family. Prince Karim Aga Khan was the founder and chairman of the Aga Khan Development Network. Aga Khan IV established the Aga Khan University as part of the AKDN in 1983 in order to improve the quality of life in the developing world and beyond through world-class teaching, research, and healthcare delivery. Driven by His Highness’ expansive vision, constant guidance and generosity, AKU has grown to be recognized as one of the finest universities in the world and a beacon of hope for the communities whom we serve. The faculty, staff, students and volunteers of the Aga Khan University offer our condolences to the family of His Highness and to the Ismaili community worldwide. As we pay tribute to the legacy of our beloved Founder and Chancellor, we continue to work to bring His Highness’ vision to life.

Meet Aashir Rauf – one of our admin heroes at CIME, Karachi! Need a venue or simulator booked? 🗓️ Facing logistical crisis during a session at CIME? ⚠️ Aashir’s got your back! 👍 As CIME’s Simulation Administration Assistant, he manages bookings, inventories, and all things admin like a pro. Aashir has been at CIME for more than 5 years now and knows it like the back of his hand. He’s not just a master of his work – but is also the most polite and helpful. When he’s not solving out admin problems, he’s working on his Bachelor’s degree in Commerce from the University of Karachi. 🎓 #TeamCIME #BehindTheScenesHero #AdminPro

What's our team up to in Orlando?! 🇺🇸 CIME’s repping AKU and Pakistan 🇵🇰 at the world's biggest gathering of simulation enthusiasts - the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH), and they've brought their A-game to it! 🩺 Dr Faisal Ismail did it all—posters, oral presentations, AND rocked the SSH Directors' Session. Is there anything he can’t do?  👨⚖️ Saleem Shahabuddin (our very own sim-tech guru) stepped into the SimVentors Showcase Jury like a boss. 🎲 Dr Selina Hasan presented her pilot study on how escape rooms aren’t just for fun—they’re for learning too! 🎤 Iqra Navroz kept the crowd hooked with TWO amazing talks about gamifying nursing and teaching kids to save lives.  🎮 And of course, the team’s workshop “Game On!” proved that healthcare + games = genius. Who says learning can’t be fun? We’re super proud to represent CIME on this global stage! #AKUCIME #HealthcareInnovation #IMSH2025 | Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH)
