“Hybrid Medics” refers to medical professionals taking leading roles in the development of Medical equipment. The developing of such hybrid medics will stimulate international competitiveness in the innovation of new medical equipment and in the future go on to forge links bridging practicality and research in the local community. In order to develop such hybrid medics requires a high level of mutual collaboration between both Medical and Engineering educational at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
| Collaboration between medical and engineering makes the development of innovative medical equipment possible. |
|---|
| Develop equipment while gaining an education. |
| Using state of the art 3D printer technology to produce medical instruments. |
| Ideas can be immediately realized. |
| At Nagasaki University with the aid of 3D printing the complete process of design through to clinical trials is possible. |
| Proof of design effectiveness can be carried out in a short period of time. |
| Engineering graduates can receive a medical Ph.D. |
| Papers may be presented at medical or engineering related conferences or published in either journals. |
| With the collaborative input from both engineering and medical lecturers engineering majors can take part in medical practicums and medical majors can take part in engineering practicums. |
| Assistance is readily available from both medical and engineering specialists. |
