COVID-19 Response: 3D-Printed Devices

In the midst of ventilator and personal protective equipment shortages due to COVID-19, JAM² researchers collaborated with colleagues across JHU and other universities to design 3D-printable components for emergency response.  With colleagues in the School of Medicine, they designed multiple components comprising vent-lock, a ventilator splitter system to help mitigate emergency ventilator shortages.  Information about JAM² researchers contributions to these efforts can be found here, and additional details here.   Dr. Guest and students also collaborated with researchers at UIUC to design and manufacture components for a 3D printed respirator.
