Biomedical Complex

aula magna

The Biomedical Complex, located just steps from the University Hospital, serves as the logistical and operational heart for biomedical teaching and research within the Department of Medicine, Surgery and Pharmacy. The facility is composed of three interconnected buildings linked by glass walkways and houses:

  • Multimedia lecture halls seating from 60 up to over 250, equipped for hybrid teaching with HD audio‑video systems, interactive whiteboards, and university Wi‑Fi;
  • A biomedical library featuring study rooms open until late evening, wired workstations, and bibliographic reference services;
  • Teaching and research laboratories dedicated to Dentistry, Human Anatomy, Histology and Genetics, Physiology, Bioengineering, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Virology, Parasitology, and Pharmacology, plus a digital microscopy and cell culture area;
  • Ground‑floor offices for the Liaison Structure (Teaching Secretariat, Erasmus, Orientation), acting as a one‑stop desk for students and faculty;
  • Third Mission spaces – rooms for outreach events, thematic exhibitions, and open days – as well as a refreshment area with vending machines and accessible facilities.

The complex is fully accessible, with panoramic elevators, energy‑efficient LED lighting, and a fiber‑optic network that automatically records lectures and uploads them to the university’s e‑learning platform. Its immediate proximity to the hospital enables seamless integration of classroom, laboratory, and clinical ward activities, promoting a true “bench‑to‑bedside” training model.
