HSIS2 Information SessionsNext week there will be a range of informal 'drop-in' information sessions for interested staff (and students). On Level 3, Medical School South, there will be a semi-permanent display of information including floorplans and project timeframes. Members of the project team and architectural team will also be on hand at various times to answer questions and discuss various aspects of the project with you. No bookings are necessary, see the project website for session times. Medical School to become Helen MayoWith Council having approved the name change, Medical School North and South will become Helen Mayo North and South, ready for the 2018 teaching year. The 2018 timetable is currently being built using the new name, but the name won't officially change until just before Christmas, as there are many services, signs and contacts which all need to be updated in tandem. The exact changeover date will be advised in the next newsletter, but in the meantime, you can learn about the amazing achievements of Helen Mayo by downloading this poster. Adelaide Metro shuttle busesAdelaide Metro now have a free shuttle bus service (97A) to and from the old RAH to nRAH. A number of other bus services will also now go directly down North Terrace to the new RAH rather than diverting to Grenfell St or King William St. To find out more visit the Adelaide Metro website. New name for new anatomy & pathology museum - almost!Following our call in August, we received a number of creative naming suggestions from Faculty members for the new anatomy and pathology museum on the ground floor of Medical School South. After much consideration and deliberation the Faculty Executive Team have agreed on a new name - which is currently making it's way through the official University approval process and will be publicly launched once final approval is received. The new museum combines the three previously separate anatomy and pathology collections into one new purpose-built teaching and learning space with full AV capability, lecture capture, great access and plenty of natural light. Teaching has already begun in the new facility, so if you haven't already done so, head to the ground floor of MSS to see this exciting new space hard at work. Change of access to Adelaide MicroscopyIf you’re visiting or working in Adelaide Microscopy in Medical School North, please note that access is no longer through the front door. Construction UpdateRefurbishment of the Medical School buildings is progressing rapidly. If you wish to stay informed of weekly construction updates, forecast noise/vibration disturbances, and how the works will impact you, please email Greg Badger to be put on the HSIS Stage 2 distribution list.
