Newsletter 88 from September 2018

Dear All Please find latest news:

Moving Plans

The celebration of the Skou Building will be held Monday, October 8th (the Minister of Construction and the Minister of Culture has announced that they will be coming) and the employee party will be held on Friday, October 12th.

We expect the relocation we can start in week 46 (mid-November). The reason why we postponed the moving 4 weeks was that a number of adjustments in the building has to be made before we can move in. This is especially the installation of extra flow benches. The relocation to building 1233/1234 (Anatomy) is proceeding as planned.

 

PhD students' teaching

As a result of a few cases, it must be stated that PhD students cannot teach more than 150 hours, including preparation. It is important that the PhD students gain their main education experience through the teaching teams, thus ensuring the best supervision and feedback on their efforts.

Booking of meeting rooms in the Skou Building

The meeting rooms in the Skou Building can now be booked in the electronic calendar. We want to ensure a good distribution of meeting rooms between the groups in the Skou Building, and once we have come in place we will make a joint distribution of regular meetings. It is not possible to book meetings with repetitions and all meetings that are booked after February 1 will be deleted. See an overview of meeting rooms at Biomedicine here: biomed.medarbejdere.au.dk/praktisk-info-og-faciliteter/lokaleadministration-booking/

 

Landline telephones are phased out

There is no possibility for analogue landline telephones in the Skou Building and the current analogue telephone numbers will be discontinued when moving from Bartholin and the 1170 complex. If you need a digital landline phone in the Skou Building, please contact Morten Pless pless@biomed.au.dk. The price for a digital landline phone is approx. 1,500 kr. that is to be paid for by the research group.
