CAPE is the world’s first simulation-based training and research center dedicated to the fetal, neonatal, pediatric and obstetric sciences. CAPE opened its doors in November 2002, thanks to a generous gift from an anonymous donor.
A part of Stanford Medicine, CAPE's training programs are greatly enriched by a close connection with Stanford Children's Health and a shared commitment to state-of-the-art patient care and the training that makes that possible. Many of the healthcare professionals who teach at CAPE also care for patients within Stanford Children's Health and serve on the faculty of the Stanford University School of Medicine.
