Episode 37: Robert Joyce, Founder, FibreTuff
In this week’s episode, host Matt Griffin shares an interview with Robert Joyce, Founder of FibreTuff, that took place at TCT Rapid 2022 in Detroit, Michigan. Bob shares the story of this unusual biocompatible material with "bone-like" qualities for 3D printing, and its current and potential impact on medicine and research. While the full range of properties will be unlocked by additional research exploration and regulatory approvals, already the radiopacity and bone-like qualities have revealed several medical, medical research, education, and bio-research opportunities.
Robert Joyce: “Physicians and college students only have so much time and they want results. They want to print in 15 minutes, but you’ve got to explain to them it is a process.”
