UNF and Mayo Clinic collaborate on innovative 3D anatomy printing course
UNF has teamed up with the 3D Anatomic Modeling Laboratory at Mayo Clinic in Florida to create an innovative undergraduate course at the University.
A few years ago, Dr. Robert Pooley, medical physicist at the 3D Anatomic Modeling Laboratory, helped conduct Mayo Clinic’s national job search for a software engineer in the lab and couldn’t find anyone with the exact qualifications needed. Using 3D printing for the creation of physical replicas of anatomical structures that are impacted by specific unique or complicated conditions is revolutionizing medical care and allowing doctors and researchers to improve surgical procedures, create better treatment plans and reduce costs. Habegger is co-teaching the course with Dr. Grant Bevill, mechanical engineering associate professor, along with assistance from Dr. Pooley and Carleigh Eagle with Mayo Clinic and UNF graduate student Molly Dobrow.
