Duffy has unveiled the design details for the first-of-its-kind advanced female crash test dummy, known as THOR-05F. This has ...

Rochester, Minn.-based Mayo Clinic performs among the most virtually planned surgeries in the world through its development of 3D modeling. The ...

Spine Colorado, part of Durango Orthopedic Associates, began using a new imaging system this month that was previously only ...

Ohio State uses 3D printing to improve cancer surgery precision. Custom anatomical models help surgeons remove bone-invading tumors.

A 1.6-million-year-old Ethiopian skull blends ancestor and descendant features, rewriting the origin story of Homo erectus.

These 3D-printed skulls are made with PLA (Polylactic acid) filament. Shawn Sanchez and Dan Smith. Get the Popular Science ...

A newly reconstructed fossil face from Ethiopia reveals surprising complexity in early human evolution. By digitally fitting together teeth and fossilized bone fragments, researchers reconstructed a ...

During a complicated bone surgery, every second matters. The longer a wound is open, the more likely it is to become infected and injured. Now picture this: Surgeons can now print a new piece of bone ...

A 3D printable bio-active glass could be used to repair bone damage and help them grow back, a study suggests. The newly developed bio-glass—made with “green” and “cost-efficient” methods—was found to ...

The paper introduces a novel bioactive glass that outperformed both standard glass and a widely used commercial bone substitute in preclinical trials. Glass is generally thought of as fragile, but in ...

You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many similarities. Researchers reporting in ACS Nano developed a 3D printable ...
