Wayne State University Richard J. Mazurek, M.D. Medical EducationCommons
The building, which includes an updated Shiffman Medical Library, is named for Richard J. Mazurek, M.D., a 1961 graduate of the School of Medicine.
The three-story, 53,000-square-foot commons connects to the School of Medicine’s Scott Hall via an elevated and enclosed walkway between the two buildings. The training facilities available in the new building are among the best and most challenging in the nation. The Clinical Skills Center includes four simulation labs, two of which are fully functioning operating rooms. Each of the labs contains patient mannequins that can speak, breathe, bleed and display a spectrum of symptoms to test medical students. Instructors can observe students in action from outside the rooms and challenge students by constantly tweaking the “patient’s” conditions.
