For more than 20 years, Scotland has been at the forefront of video game innovation and is home to some of the best-selling games of all time including Lemmings and Grand Theft Auto. One review found that a prior history of gaming was associated with improved metrics in surgery and laparoscopy skills, and suggested that video games could serve as adjunctive training for surgical skills.

This weekend, the POWER Gaming & Comic Con takes place in Glasgow. Meet special guests from the worlds of gaming, tv and comics and find fan experiences including props and set builds, interactive areas for Gaming and a Kids zone.
