Design and 3D technologies for Health&Care – OpenDot Online Summer Courses

The second edition of the Health&Care Summer School goes online with a new format to teach how design processes and digital fabrication technologies can innovate the healthcare field by producing effective solutions for real needs.

4 mornings for 4 short courses focused on 4 design processes:

• 16/06 Parametric Design to learn how to quickly adapt objects to the specificity of the user by changing measures and configurations
• 19/06 Modeling for surgery to learn how to realize preoperative study models, for the realization of prostheses and guides to support the operations
• 23/06 Custom orthotics to learn how to design masks, braces, plasters or orthotics that are personalised and comfortable thanks to 3D scanning and 3D printing
• 26/06 Training kit for the medical staff to design kits useful to medical simulation during training practices.

The Summer School is organised by OpenDot. The courses will be held in English – from 9.30am to 1pm – on Google Meet. Each course will include tutorials, lessons, individual exercises and remote mentoring from OpenDot.

It is completely free of charge, as it is part of the project DD – Distributed Design, funded by Creative Europe, to develop and promote the connection between designers, makers, and the global market.
