Dr. Thirumurugan (Thiru) is a health care consultant with a specialty in 3D Printing and 3D Scanning applications. A Dentist by profession, Thiru also holds a foundation degree in Clinical Research and a postgraduate specialization in Nanomedicine from Cranfield University in the United Kingdom. This young game changer has been pioneering solutions in the health care community (including the dental sector) while consulting and mentoring on 3D Printing projects for the last two years. While most dentists tend to stick to their field, Thiru made a complete leap outside of those boundaries when he began mentoring the team at Atom360, an Indian startup with a mission to make health care affordable and accessible using AI technology.
According to Thiru, solutions to critical health care problems today can be resolved by 3D Printing and digital models/data. He is knowledgeable on different 3D Printing methods involving patient-specific organ modelling, bone models, implants, prosthesis, surgical simulators, and other reconstruction applications. He also mentors on several research and development concepts spanning AI-assisted medicine/telemedicine, bio-printing, and medical devices.
