Additive manufacturing is redefining what’s possible in medicine, from custom implants and bioprinted tissues to agile hospital production networks. As healthcare systems face pressure to do more with less, 3D printing is emerging not just as a tool for innovation, but as an infrastructure for resilience.
Our online event AMA: Healthcare 2025 brings together the people shaping this transformation. This year’s speakers represent the full spectrum of progress, from material science and design simulation to regulatory standards and clinical translation.
EOS North America’s Dave Krzeminski explores how polymer AM is moving from prototype to production in regulated environments. Incus CEO Gerald Mitteramskogler and MetShape’s Lucas Vogel reveal how lithography-based metal manufacturing is maturing into serial production. GenMat founder Sajjad Raeisi showcases how generative design is reshaping orthopedic implants, while PolyUnity Tech’s Stephen Ryan demonstrates how hospitals are turning 3D printing into an agile problem-solving platform.
Beyond the clinical frontier, Lynxter’s Thomas Batigne and Graphy Inc.’s Joseph Lee highlight the rise of multi-material and AI-driven dental applications, while Newcastle University’s Dr. Priscila Melo and UMC Utrecht’s Oksana Dudaryeva push the boundaries of bioprinting and regenerative materials.
With contributions from AM Research’s Scott Dunham, Invent Medical’s Jan Rosicky, Harvard’s Dr. Ali Kiapour, and Glidewell’s Ankush Venkatesh, this edition captures the energy of a field converging on scale, personalization, and clinical trust.
Join us for AMA: Healthcare 2025 on October 15th, where research meets production, and the future of patient care takes shape, layer by layer.
We are grateful to EOS North America, Incus, and Formnext for sponsoring AMA:Healthcare and making it possible to host this event.
