• For the final project of my AP Research course, I developed a 3D printable finger splint to treat Mallet Finger at the Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, BC.
• By the end of the research term, an anatomically correct finger splint could be printed in under half an hour for a cost of less than 30 cents.
• Developed skills in 3D printing technology with Autodesk Fusion 360 and gained valuable experience in science communication.
