News like this is refreshing as it reminds us the primary purpose of science is to help humanity. Most of the time we are only inventing gadgets that makes more dumb in the name of efficiency. (Ex: When was the last time we calculated something without a calculator).
According to the article:-
A survivor of a serious motorbike accident has had pioneering surgery to reconstruct his face using a series of 3D printed parts.
Stephen Power, from Cardiff, is thought to be one of the first trauma patients in the world to have 3D printing used at every stage of the procedure.
The project was the work of the Centre for Applied Reconstructive Technologies in Surgery (Cartis), which is a collaboration between the team in Swansea and scientists at Cardiff Metropolitan University.
