We had a file sharing contest in May of 2017, where those members who uploaded and shared a file were entered to win. We had many good entries and it was a tough choice, but we found a winner! Michael Platt is our winner! He submitted and shared two STL downloads; a thoracic vertebra and a renal cortex. We selected the renal cortex because the download contains two STL files: an intact renal cortex and another STL with the cortex sliced in half.

Michael is a medical physicist with a passion for 3D printing and design. His research involves 3D printing and scanning in radiation oncology. He loves 3D printing and thinks that it has wonderful potential in medicine. We couldn't agree more!

We are having a file review contest in June with a $50 prize. All that is required is to download a file and write a review. Each file you review in June 2017 will be an entry in our contest. There is no limit to the number of files you can review. To learn more and see complete rules please visit our contest page.
