Future Science Group (FSG), a scientific publisher focused on breakthrough medical, biotechnological and scientific research, has announced the launch of 3DMedLIVE, a 2-day conference hosted by FSG’s eCommunity 3DMedNet and the Journal of 3D Printing in Medicine to take place in London on October 2-3, 2019.
Following the launch of 3DMedNet in 2016 and in response to the need to take the use of 3D printing in surgical practice to the next level, 3DMedLIVE will convene all members of the community who, together, can elevate surgical 3D printing to make it an everyday reality across healthcare.
3D printing is already present in surgical planning, patient-specific implants and patient consent in several hospitals across the world. However, it is not yet an accessible technology for all, and there remain many questions over regulation, implementation, and funding, among others. 3DMedLIVE will be an opportunity for these questions to be discussed and for case studies to be shared: the event will bring together surgeons, radiologists, biomedical engineers, 3D printing technicians, medical modellers, and healthcare professionals, with regulators, engineers, start-ups and suppliers.
Over 2 days, delegates will hear case studies directly from pioneering surgeons and researchers who are already utilising 3D printing technologies in their practice, plus panel discussions and roundtables with regulators, manufacturers and funders. The tone of the conference will be dynamic, conversation-led and solution-focused, with the patient at the heart.
As well as providing a platform for the presentation and discussion of scientific ideas, offering the opportunity to connect with other innovators is core to the mission of 3DMedLIVE. In line with the ethos of its host 3DMedNet, communication and collaboration are key, so there will also be plenty of opportunities to network and meet new contacts, not least at the 3DMedLIVE Cocktail Party on October 2.
