ARC CMIT 2024 Symposium

The 2024 ARC Center for Medical Implant Technologies Symposium was held today, hosted by Prof Peter VS Lee and A/Prof David Ackland of The University of Melbourne. The diverse range of biomedical engineering PhD projects fostered by CMIT across all of its university and industry partners exemplifies the value of this collaboration and the multidisciplinary approach to research and innovation. 3dMedLab has been delighted to be a key member of this centre.

With five whole days left to go before the 3dMed Australia Conference, we are proud to welcome Jen Owen to Australia in order to speak at #3dMedAu18.

Based in Washington state, Jen is founder of the ground-breaking Enable the Future project (e-NABLE) — a philanthropic, multinational, collaborative and grassroots-driven effort to make open-source, self-assembled designs for prosthetic hands and arms which can be 3d-printed at the point of care. This project inspired Austin Health prosthetist Jake Eadie to develop a 3d-printed prosthesis program as part of 3dMedLab.

The 3dMed Australia Conference 2018 is dedicated to exploring the use of 3D technologies in Medicine including 3d-printing, 3d-modelling, virtual reality and augmented reality. Register now to attend, media enquiries welcome.
