AIMS Program Earns National Recognition for Excellence in Distance Learning

The Adventures in Medicine & Science (AIMS) program at Saint Louis University School of Medicine has been named a 2024–2025 Pinnacle Award Winner by the Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration (CILC).

The Pinnacle Awards honor “Programs of Distinction” — live virtual learning experiences that consistently receive outstanding ratings from educators for their educational value and student engagement. Each year, recipients represent some of the most distinguished cultural, scientific, and educational institutions worldwide.

This recognition reflects the AIMS team’s commitment to delivering high-quality, interactive anatomy, medical, and science programming to students everywhere, regardless of location. Through virtual dissections, demonstrations, and medical science presentations, AIMS continues to inspire curiosity and spark a deeper understanding of the human body and health sciences.
