3D printing in health research engaging STEM students
Researchers at Victoria University (VU) are breaking new ground in biomedical engineering by developing cutting-edge tools to better understand and treat respiratory conditions. VU’s researchers are harnessing high-precision 3D-resin-printing technology to create precise replicas of the human airway that allow for more accurate study of airflow dynamics and particle deposition in the human respiratory system, an advancement that presents significant opportunities for environmental and pharmaceutical research. At the forefront of these efforts is a team led by Dr Jingliang Dong, Lecturer, ARC DECRA Fellow and ANFF-VIC Technology Fellow Ambassador at VU.
