Innovation and technology have taken more of a center stage at OSF Jump Trading and Simulation Center.

OSF Innovation at Jump showcased its problem-solving capabilities last week. Chief Transformation Officer Dr. Jeff Tillery says finding solutions to medical issues requires advanced technology.

"So all the way from 3-D immersive technology, 3-D printers, telehealth with virtual care access," Tillery said.

Tillery says technology is only the first step. The innovation center has specially designed work rooms for professionals with various-disciplines meet as a team for weeks at time. Members work as a single unit, using technology to help find solutions to medical issues.
