Writing about yourself always sounds a little bit creepy, or, in best cases, awkward. How do I share my experience? How can I write about me in third person and not to sound braggy? Who’s going to read this? Would I read it? But more important, would anyone care about it?

​

I’m trying to keep these questions in mind while writing this piece about me and what I do. Let’s see if this internal struggle can help me to share with you my path in the best way I can.

 

My name is Matteo Zanfabro and I am the man behind “3D Veterinary Printing”. I am a Veterinarian, born in Trieste, and I live and work in Parma. I have 2 dogs: Sharko and Zima.

 

While working and doing research for my thesis, I studied medical applications of 3D printing technologies and I had the opportunity to apply these technologies on real patients. My leading question has always been: what are the actual and concrete implications 3D printing technologies have on patients?

​

The answer brought me to 3D Veterinary Printing project.

 

3D Vet is my work project. It is grounded on the application of 3D printing technologies to the field of Veterinary Medicine and health-care.

Applications of additive manufacturing technologies are wide-ranging and employed in different fields, from robotics to space-crafting. While this technology has already been applied in Human Medicine, in the field of Veterinary Medicine its medical applications seem so far little investigated.

 

The aim is simple: being an active part of the 3D printing revolution, pushing it and its applications through the field of Veterinary medicine, employing these powerful technologies in order to reach a new higher level of health-care services.

 

I am proud of this project and I hope you will like it.
