In this episode, we are fortunate to have a few minutes with Dr. Albert Woo (in between surgeries) to learn more about his journey in 3D printing as a plastic surgeon and how he was able to work with healthcare organizations and find resources for his innovative work in the space, not just in plastic surgery but other specialties as well. Albert will be speaking on the CMF panel during 3DHEALS2020 virtually in June. Full written, video, audio interviews can be found here.
