Digital Signage

The medical school has digital signage throughout its Chicago campus to provide faculty, staff and students with timely and informative content, such as news and weather. Paper flyers are not allowed to be posted in any foyers or public spaces of Feinberg buildings.

Add Your Event to the Digital Monitors

  • The “Title” field must include the specific title of the talk.
  • Titles should not be in all-caps.
  • Titles should not be submitted with “TBA” or “TBD,” nor with any other incomplete information.

When you add your event to the medical school calendar by filling out the form, it'll also be added to these digital monitor feeds. Up to three calendar entries may be selected weekly to appear as full-screen slides.

Specific requests for full-screen slides must meet these requirements:

  • The event is open to the entire Feinberg community, free of charge.
  • The event has been organized by Feinberg members alone, for a Feinberg audience.

  • Slide text must not exceed 70 words. QR codes are encouraged as a way of sharing more information. 
  • It is preferred that the Office of Communications create your slide. Original slide designs must follow technical specifications set forth by the Office of Communications. Please email medcommunications@northwestern.edu to request specs prior to creating a new slide.  
  • Note: Medical school signage is not connected to hospital or other signage installations. Appearance on Feinberg-owned monitors does not extend to clinical affiliate monitors.
