Staying in Shape and Connected with 3D Printing

February 12, 2024

Lutz Wiegart, a physicist at Brookhaven Lab, describes how modern 3D printing can be used to make life-changing products, from heart valves to houses. In this installment of NSLS-II Science Shorts, learn how scientists can watch and improve additive manufacturing—the process by which many objects are 3D printed—in real time using synchrotron x-ray beams.
