Printing In Three Dimensions

In-lab three-dimensional printing

The development of the microscope in 1590 by Zacharias Janssenby and Hans Lippershey gave the world a new way of visualizing details of morphogenesis and development. More recent improvements in this technology including confocal microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical projection tomography (OPT) have enhanced the quality of the resultant image. These technologies also allow ...

Three-Dimensional Printing Surgical Applications

INTRODUCTION Three-dimensional printing, a technology used for decades in the industrial field, gains a lot of attention in the medical field for its potential benefits. With advancement of desktop printers, this technology is accessible and a lot of research is going on in the medical field. OBJECTIVE To evaluate its application in surgical field, which may include but not limited to surgica...

Biology in three dimensions

Most things in biology spread out into three dimensions, and many biological web sites include three-dimensional images. But biologists want more than a look at something. They want to pick it up and look at it from all sides, which is where three-dimensional images that can be manipulated online really come into their own. One approach to such interactive images relies on VRML (virtual reality...

Collapsars in Three Dimensions

We present the results of 3-dimensional simulations of the direct collapse to a black hole of a rotating, 60M⊙, zero metallicity, population III star. Because the structure of this star (angular momentum, density and temperature profiles) is similar to many collapsar gamma-ray burst progenitors, these calculations have implications beyond the fate of population III stars. These simulations prov...
