Healthcare 3D printing is moving fast, and design is leading the way. In this episode, we explore how advanced CAD, simulation, and automation are enabling patient-specific implants, multi-material tissue-like structures, AI-powered prosthetics, and fully custom pediatric seating. Beyond the printer, human-centered design and smart workflows are turning ideas into devices that improve patient care. We start with the biology.

Episode #101 | Therapeutic Hardware: Can Implants Also Heal? With Alyssa Huffman Allumin8
In this episode, Alyssa Huffman, CEO and co-founder of Allumin8, shares the six-year journey behind a first-of-its-kind 5.5 mm porous, 3D-printed pedicle screw. We discussed how Allumin8 earned FDA clearance and why design details matter for fatigue, fixation, and fewer revisions. We also map a path toward therapeutic hardware that integrates orthobiologics without slowing surgeons down. Critical questions addressed: Why does 5.5 mm matter so much? How does Gaussian topography support bone ...
