    DescriptionProfessor Moataz Attallah is the director of the University of Birmingham’s specialist Advanced Materials and Processing Lab, known as AMPLab.

    Additive manufacturing from the AMPLab is behind of some of the most cutting edge materials research in the 3D printing industry, including a 3D printed ceramic thruster, that achieved “unprecedented results,” and a machine that can 3D print metal in zero gravity conditions.

    In this interview 3D Printing Industry find out more about Professor Attallah’s current projects with the European Space Agency, 3D printed implants that can deliver precise doses of medicine and how AMPLab is breaking down barriers to 3D printed progress.
