Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing in Clinical Practice

该学科跳跃奖将使Ruth Goodridge博士在诺丁汉大学医院（NUH） NHS信托的临床环境中工作24个月（0.5%FTE）。她将主要在皇后医学中心（QMC）的临床工程系工作，与Dan Clark教授一起工作，但也将在QMC和诺丁汉市医院的其他部门（如颌面、心脏病科）工作，并在药品和保健产品监管机构（MHRA）进行外部实习。她的学科跳跃的总体目标将是确定临床需求，其中增材制造和3d打印（AM&3DP）制造的设备可以提供显着的优势，并加速由AM&3DP制造的设备在这些领域的实施。

This Discipline Hopping Award will enable Dr Ruth Goodridge to spend 24 months (0.5%FTE) working in a clinical environment at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) NHS Trust. She will primarily be based in the Clinical Engineering Department at Queens Medical Centre (QMC), working alongside Prof. Dan Clark, but will also spend time in other departments (e.g. maxillofacial, cardiology) at QMC and Nottingham City Hospitals, and undertake an external placement at the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). The overall aim of her discipline hop will be to identify clinical needs where devices fabricated by Additive Manufacturing & 3D-Printing (AM&3DP) could offer significant advantages and to accelerate the implementation of devices made from AM&3DP into these areas.
