Take away body parts! An investigation into the use of 3D-printed anatomical models in undergraduate anatomy education
TL;DR: 3D‐printed anatomical models can be successfully produced from the CT data set of a recently deceased donor and can be used in anatomy education as a teaching tool in their own right, as well as a method for augmenting the curriculum and complementing established learning modalities, such as dissection‐based teaching.

The effects of printing orientation on the electrochemical behaviour of 3D printed acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)/carbon black electrodes.
TL;DR: Overall, electrodes printed in a vertical direction provide enhanced electrochemical performance and this study indicates that print orientation is a key factor that can be used to enhance sensor performance.
Augmentation of conductive pathways in carbon black/PLA 3D-printed electrodes achieved through varying printing parameters
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of 3D-printing layer thickness and orientation on the electron transfer kinetics and resistivity of conductive materials was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and imaging.

TL;DR: Information is provided for the development of a clinically appropriate 3D-printing-based fabrication process to produce bioengineered tissue for cartilage regeneration and UV-irradiation and autoclaving are determined as the best candidates for sterilisation.
Three-Dimensional-Printed Electrochemical Sensor for Simultaneous Dual Monitoring of Serotonin Overflow and Circular Muscle Contraction
TL;DR: A 3D printed carbon black / polylactic acid (PLA) electrochemical sensor, which had a geometry suitable for ex vivo measurement in the anorectum, and has the ability to conduct dual simultaneous measurements of 5-HT overflow and contractility.
