Led by Tyree IHealthE, the Integrated Acute Services Building (IASB) at Randwick Health & Innovation Precinct will house research, clinical innovation, biomedical, and teaching facilities across 10 floors, focusing on tech solutions for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
UNSW researchers and students will work alongside clinicians in the Integrated Acute Services Building from mid 2024.
The Acute Services Building (ASB) is part of the Randwick Health & Innovation Precinct. In its eastern extension, known as the Integrated Acute Services Building (IASB), UNSW will house state-of-the-art research, clinical innovation, biomedical and teaching facilities across 10 floors.
Three floors will be dedicated to biomedical engineering, led by UNSW’s Tyree Foundation Institute of Health Engineering (IHealthE). These spaces will facilitate partnerships in tech solutions for diagnosis, treatment and prevention of a wide range of conditions, with researchers and clinicians sharing ideas, prototypes and data analyses.
Such collaborations will help uncover unmet clinical needs and design innovative solutions to improve patient outcomes, says UNSW’s Professor Laura Poole-Warren, co-Director of the Tyree Foundation Institute of Health Engineering.
“Co-location and collaboration will help us show clinicians what’s feasible and demonstrate potential tech solutions. This is a space for us to engage directly with clinicians, patients, community and even industry, if appropriate,” she says.
