3D organs and organ systems training provided
Within the scope of the META-TIP project, which scored 89.5 points at Teknofest and took its place among the finalists, real organs were 3D scanned and digitized, then made curriculum-compatible using VR glasses, to enable students and researchers, especially those in medical faculties, to receive better education. Project Software Development Manager Emre Kaan Şanverdi, as the Metaverse and Entrepreneurship Club, provided training on 3D organs and organ systems to a group of 25 students from Üsküdar University Faculty of Medicine. The students received 3D printer training and produced organ prints by realizing three-dimensional organ designs.
