Hi everyone!

Are you interested in getting involved in modeling 3D printed models for anatomy teaching sessions? This is the perfect timing! Whether or not you have any experience in generating 3D printed models or not, we are looking for people to come help modeling visceral organs like kidneys and livers, these 3D printed models will be used in the university’s anatomy teaching sessions and in further research.

There are even opportunities for you to get involved in research yourself with Dr. Ian Keenan, our senior lecturer in Anatomy!
Contact us if you would like to know more!

Hi All,

M3dicube NCL welcomes everyone back to a new and interesting year ahead! We have a few exciting events planned for this year, and first up on the list is our Vertebral Workshop Series!

The series will consist of 2 sessions, which we are aiming to deliver on 9th and 16th November. Please register your interest if you are committed to attending both sessions, as they will be related!

Join us as we take you through the process of producing your very own 3D printed vertebral segment model!
Aims of our printing workshops:
1. Learn how to better interpret CT scans
2. Learn the basics of obtaining a 3D printable model from a CT scan
3. Engage with other like-minded individuals within our quickly developing 3D printing interest group

!! There are limited spaces for this event so do not hesitate to indicate your interest ASAP !!

Meet Corey, our Clinical Representative!

'I'm an Academic Foundation Doctor who graduated from Newcastle University with degrees in Medicine (MBBS) and a Master of Research in Cancer (MRes). My research interests involve orthopaedic oncology, biomaterials and tissue engineering and surgery. This year I hope to bridge the gap between the society's events and the real-life clinical applications of 3D-printing within the NHS. I am particularly interested in the use of 3D-printed implants for reconstructive surgery following large tumour resections.'

COMMITTEE 2020/21

Meet Benjamin, our Development Lead!

'I'm a 2nd year medical student. I was drawn to the world of 3D-printing after observing various models during my anatomy sessions in first year and as a result, I have a particular interest in the potential role that it could play in supplementing medical education. As Development Lead, I'll be focused on fine-tuning and enhancing M3dicube's current 3D-printing process, as well as providing support for any future 3D-printing projects.'

COMMITTEE 2020/21

Meet Ruxandra, our Events Lead!

'I'm a 2nd year medical student with an interest in oncology, radiology and teaching. I discovered the innovative world of 3D-printing last year, by attending M3dicube workshops. As both a Medicine and Physics enthusiast, the promising applications of 3D-printing technology in a clinical context have captivated me. This year, I am aim to carefully and enthusiastically organise workshops, and to coordinate events with other societies to help expand the reach of 3D-printing in the medical community.'
