Cafe Scientifique- A Helping Hand to Those in Need
Join us to hear Kelly Knights and Michael Peirone, Victoria Hand Project talk about “A Helping Hand to Those in Need—Improving the World with 3D Printing”. The Victoria Hand Project is a non-profit organization with a mission to provide upper-limb prosthesis to amputees in developing countries, with limited or no access to prosthetic care. Started as a University of Victoria research initiative in 2014, the project now has partner clinics in eight countries around the world, empowering local communities to assemble and distribute 3D printed prosthetic arms to amputees who may not have access to any kind of prostheses otherwise.
