Tour of the new Medical Science Precinct in Hobart
On behalf of the organising committee, I would welcome you to attend the 7th
annual conference of the Australian and New Zealand Association of Clinical
Anatomists. This year the meeting will be hosted by the School of Medicine at the
University of Tasmania (UTAS), Hobart, Australia. The conference will take
place within the new Medical Sciences 1 building within the UTAS Medical
Science precinct, recently visited by the Prime Minister and other delegates.
For this year’s meeting, we have chosen the theme “Anatomy Educators: Making
Anatomy Necessary and Attractive to Modern Audiences” to highlight the
importance of educators in stimulating the interest of students in topographical,
histological and developmental anatomy in the current climate of integrated
medicine teaching.
This conference aims to bring together anatomists from many different disciplines
to review methods of teaching anatomy within Australia and New Zealand. It will
provide an opportunity for networking for all delegates.
As the Medical Sciences building is in the heart of Hobart, accommodation
available near the Medical Sciences building includes budget accommodation up
to 4 star hotels to suit all tastes and requirements.
