Today, the Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine officially opens its brand-new Simulation Learning Center (SLC), located on the third floor of 635 Albany Street. The new SLC has 117 student simulation stations and two teacher stations, but under current physical-distancing guidelines, capacity will be limited to 50 individuals. The new SLC is equipped with state-of-the-art dental and digital technology, and will greatly enhance the preclinical pre- and postdoctoral educational experience of the school’s students and residents.
