UWE research uses 3D printing to create organ simulators 3D Printing Industry An academic team from the University of the West of England's Center for Fine Print Research (CFPR) is using 3D printing to produce realistic organs for use in surgical training. According to the researchers, the aim of the project is to create model organs that mimic the "appearance, elasticity and consistency" of human tissue. By creating organ simulators that look and feel real, surgical training becomes more representative of real life and can ultimately aid in lessening patient risk. READ MORE
