Room Technologies

iPads

Feinberg has dedicated iPads in the ALC and the Anatomy Lab. Additional sets of iPads can be reserved and utilized in other learning spaces for the MD program. 

Butterflies

Butterflies are handheld ultrasound devices used in a variety of teaching and learning settings at Feinberg. Each device is paired with an iPad (or iPhone). We provide them with a portable stand for ease of use and they can be used in nearly any room at the medical school. We strongly encourage you reserve them early.

OtoSim

The OtoSim system is used to teach learners to give an ear exam. This technology can be used in a variety of spaces. The OtoSim requires significant setup time and should be reserved at least one week in advance.

HeartSounds

Heartsounds is an app of heart sounds to teach students about various heart defects. While the technology can be used in a variety of locations, it’s best to only use this in rooms with the best sound quality. We strongly recommend using this in the ALC. 

Room Upgrades, Repairs, and Enhancements

This AV team also consults (in conjunction with NUIT) with you on room upgrades, repairs, and enhancements.

Request Consultation

Units and departments pay an annual rate per room based on the type of room and the support level. For more information on room rates, see below
