Teaching kits purchased with a generous donation from the U Committee, as well as posters and Powerpoint DVDs created by SOMS research groups for the Museum Launch and Medical Research Expo last year have proven very popular at the Education Exhibition held in Singapore from 2-5 March 2006.

Along with exhibits on loan from other Faculties at UNSW, the Museum's contribution has helped UNSW win "Best in Show" at the Careers 2006 exhibition in Singapore, a large education exhibition for local high school students. Many students had the opportunity to learn about the latest SOMS research activities into the causes, potential treatments and cures for certain diseases, and view outreach kits and models that support the Museum’s school and community programs.
