Our 3D Printing task force prepared our first 3D Printing white paper, "3D Printing of Medical Devices: When a Novel Technology Meets Traditional Legal Principles" last month because we are thrilled at the prospect of 3D printing changing the future of health care for the patients who need new treatments, devices and drugs, and we know that cutting edge technology raises cutting edge legal issues.  But in many respects, the future is already here.  Stratasys has an inspiring example of the use of 3D printing for surgical planning, and there are many more examples out there that show how this technology is helping patients today.

Stay tuned for more updates.
