University of Windsor 3D printing multi-story student residence Construction 3D Printing

An ambitious new building project has broken ground in Canadian city of Windsor, Ontario: a multi-story student residence constructed using 3D printing. The build, commissioned by the University of Windsor, will be the first of its kind in Canada and will eventually house seven student units (with 25 beds) and serve as a “living laboratory” for engineering students and researchers.

BioCabinet: Advancing Space Medicine with 3D Printed Human Tissue

Treating medical emergencies in space is challenging, as immediate care is limited and returning to Earth is both costly and time-consuming. To address these constraints, a research team led by Professor Park Chan-heum from Hallym University Chuncheon Sacred Heart Hospital has developed BioCabinet, a space biology research payload designed to produce living tissue in orbit and evaluate disease responses under microgravity conditions.

Boise State Researchers Move 3D Printed Biomechanics Tool Toward Commercial Launch

US-based Boise State University researchers are developing a first-of-its-kind 3D printed device aimed at improving the accuracy of biomechanical testing in Boise, Idaho. Supported by the TRANSFORM Seed Grants Program part of the National Science Foundation’s ART award, the team plans to launch the tool commercially next year, advancing the translation of university research into real-world applications.

Texas A&M Advances Hospital-Ready 3D Printing for Personalized Pediatric Drugs

Researchers at Texas A&M University are developing a 3D printing approach to tackle a long-standing gap in pediatric care: the lack of safe, precisely measured drug doses for children. Led by Professor Mansoor Khan, the team is building hospital-ready technology designed to replace improvised liquid formulations with on-demand, accurately dosed tablets — a shift that is expected to improve treatment consistency and patient outcomes.
