This week we learn about the exciting field of 3D printing in congenital heart disease. We discuss an interesting article on this topic that was recently published with one of the true world authorities on this topic, Dr. Kanwal Farooqi who is Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Columbia University. Dr. Farooqi will take us through the basics of this rapidly evolving field and explain to us how the technology may one day lead to printing biological 'spare parts' like patches, conduits or even valves for the heart. You won't want to miss this peephole into an exciting future with Dr. Farooqi.
