Welcome to the Lattice podcast, the official podcast for 3DHEALS. This is where you will find fun but in-depth conversations (by founder Jenny Chen) with technological game-changers, creative minds, entrepreneurs, rule-breakers, and more. The conversations focus on using 3D technologies, like 3D printing and bioprinting, AR/VR, and in silico simulation, to reinvent healthcare and life sciences. This podcast will include AMA (Ask Me Anything) sessions, interviews, select past virtual event…

Episode #122| The Mini Brain That Learned Pac-Man: NAMs with Dr. Lowry Curley
A brain organoid that can learn to play Pac-Man sounds like a stunt until you realize what it represents: measurable learning, rewiring, and human-relevant neural function that animal models often fail to predict. We talk with Dr. Lowry Curley, founder of Luna LifeSci and former CEO and co-founder of Axosim (now 28 Bio), about why neuroscience drug development breaks so often and how NAMs are…
Episode #121| Absorbable Biomaterials with Dr. Rao Bezwada
Absorbable biomaterials have transformed modern medicine, enabling implants, sutures, and drug-delivery systems that safely degrade once their function is complete. Dr. Rao S. Bezwada has helped shape the field of bioresorbable polymers for more than three decades. As the inventor of Monocryl® , the absorbable suture that has generated more than $2 billion in worldwide sales, and the holder of…
Episode #119 | 3D Printing At The Dentist with Dr. Nabeel Cajee
If you have ever wondered why dentistry can feel both high-tech and oddly hand-built at the same time, this conversation connects the dots. We talk with Dr. Nabeel Cajee, an oral implantologist in Newport Beach and faculty at Torque Academy and Implant Ninja School, about what it really takes to bring digital dentistry into daily patient care without turning your practice into a science project.…
We explain what physical AI is and why it matters when AI can sense, decide, and act in the real world rather than just analyze data. We map where it shows up across healthcare today, what’s holding it back, and the trends that could make it the next big platform shift in medicine. Check out our full guide on physical AI in healthcare here . Send us Fan Mail Support the show Subscribe to our…
Episode#117| Monica Wellejus:The Road to 3D-Printed Bone
Ossiform is on track to bring the first 3D printed resorbable bone implant to the US market. The company’s preclinical data showed full bone regeneration in six months. Monica Wellejus, Chief Commercial Officer of Ossiform, joins The Lattice to explain how a company built to personalize bone implants for craniomaxillofacial surgeries is pivoting to mass-produced bone implants for foot deformity,…
Episode #115| Professor Paul Dalton: Inventing Melt Electrowriting and the Future of Biofabricationrication
What does it take to invent a technology that didn't exist before? In this episode, host Dr. Jenny Chen sits down with Professor Paul Dalton, the inventor of melt electrowriting (MEW) and one of the rare "triple threats" in science: an inventor, educator, and futurist. This is also a conversation about science, creativity, and why MEW isn't just a technology but a movement. Paul takes us from a…
Episode#116| Event Recording: Advancing 3D Surgical Planning
Surgery is moving into a world where we can measure, simulate, and even rehearse before we ever touch a patient, but getting 3D surgical planning to feel “normal” inside a hospital is still a battle. We bring together a rare mix of voices across the ecosystem to explain what’s actually working, what’s still missing, and what it takes to scale medical 3D printing and virtual surgical planning…
Episode #114| Interview With Brigitte de Vet-Veithen, CEO of Materialise
This is our second episode recorded at the Materialise conference. Our guest for this episode is no other than the CEO of Materialise Brigitte de Vet-Veithen. It is a pleasure for me to be able to conduct this interview, because Materialise is such a legendary company that has spent 35 years building the software and services infrastructure behind patient-specific implants, surgical planning, and…
Episode#113| How 3D Printing Explains the Unexplainable in Congenital Heart Disease with Dr. Tristan Ramcharan
This is one of two episodes we have recorded during our trip to Leuven Belgium for the Materialise 2026 Conference, focusing on 3D planning and 3D printing in hospitals. We talked with Dr. Tristan Remcharan about how pediatric cardiology imaging can become something you can literally hold, using 3D segmentation and 3D printing to make congenital heart disease easier to plan, teach, and explain. We…
Episode# 112 | Automating Compounding Pharmacies: Prof. Alvaro Goyanes, FabRx
You can learn a lot about the future of healthcare by watching how a single pill gets made. From a small office in London, we sit down with Prof Alvaro Goyanes, co-founder and CEO of FabRx , to unpack how 3D printed pharmaceuticals are turning personalized medicine from an idea into a working system. If you’ve ever wondered why patients still get forced into a handful of standard doses, this…
