Remote Controlled 3D Printed Pills to Inhibit Cancer Growth
Central to the treatment of most patients, medication in the form of pills and complex drug delivery systems is expected to change drastically in the coming years too as these…
G-ID: Identifying 3D Printed Parts Through Slicing Parameters
There are multiple ways to identify specific 3D prints, such as QR codes and bar codes, RFID tags and watermarks, and serial numbers. But a group of researchers from MIT…
Researchers Combining FDM 3D Printing with Hot-Melt Extrusion for Drug Delivery Systems
We’ve often seen 3D printing used to make drug delivery systems, but a trio of researchers from the University of Sussex are combining FDM technology with something called Hot-Melt Extrusion, or…
Researchers Use 3D Printing and Basic Electronic Components to Make Neuroscience More Accessible
While I was worse in math, science was also not one of my strong suits in school. So anything that makes it easier for students to better understand these complex…
Researchers Combine 3D Printing, Microcomputers, and Simple Electronics to Make Small, Inexpensive Laboratory System
We’ve heard of open source 3D printer filament, open source software, open source designs, and of course, open source 3D printers. But what about open labware? Researchers from the University of…
Researchers Invent Sound-Shaping Super-Material Using Acoustic Metamaterials
A really interesting, complex technology we’ve been hearing about more and more often is metamaterials, which are able to morph according to their environment. Metamaterials can be 3D printed, and comprise…
