Join us in this epic course as you build on your vancomycin dosing skills while assisting Dr. Vanko, a Russian scientist, treat his father’s MRSA infection and escape the room. 

DR. Vanko's lab


Your friends and teachers assured you that learning vancomycin dosing would be easy, but they never warned you that you would be tasked with saving a man’s life.

As it turns out, you have been hired to help Ivan Vanko, a Russian scientist, save his father’s life in order to unlock the secret code to escape the course.

Dr. Vanko was working on a top-secret weapon. While testing the weapon, something went awry, and an explosion caused Dr. Vanko to suffer a penetrating injury. Due to the explosion, Dr. Vanko’s lab has initiated an emergency lockdown, trapping you and his son, Ivan, inside. Unfortunately, the only person who knows the code to unlock the room is Dr. Vanko, who is now unconscious.
