Silvana Arteaga Moreno , London, United Kingdom

I really enjoy being involved with new technologies, design engineering, and manufacturing processes, like 3D Printing. I am mainly interested in Orthopedics, Product Design, Healthcare, and Architecture sectors, and also open to any other industry sector.

I just finished a MSc. in Rehabilitation Engineering & Assistive Technologies at UCL, and had previously studied a BSc. in Biomedical Engineering. Moreover, I am very interested and took some courses about Additive Manufacturing, and Rapid Prototyping with different manufacturing processes. Previously, I volunteered with an NGO making prosthetics 3D printed for children around the world.

My skills in CAD design are mainly with Fusion 360 Autodesk and Onshape, and I mostly have used FDM 3D printers, slicing software, and worked with PLA, ABS, PETG and flexible materials. I also understand other technologies (SLA, SLS, SLM), and have some basic knowledge in electronics, Arduino & Matlab.

I am looking to share my passion about 3D printing and improve my 3D modelling skills to provide more effective solutions, develop 3D patient specific models, create or adapt medical devices, and innovate products that we use in our everyday life.
