Overview

Below you can find guidelines for an HMS user leaving HMS who wishes to keep you access to O2 and HMS Storage.

Examples could be a student that is graduating or an HMS researcher that is leaving an HMS-based (on-Quad) Lab and joining an affiliate hospital (off-Quad) Lab.

Labs with a PI that has a primary or secondary faculty appointment in an HMS Basic Science department are considered “On-Quad” (aka Quad A, B, or C)
Labs with a PI that does not have a primary or secondary faculty appointment in an HMS Basic Science department are considered “Quad None” (aka off-Quad)
