AM.NUS

Welcome to

NUS Centre for Additive Manufacturing

The NUS Centre for Additive Manufacturing (AM.NUS) leverages the National University of Singapore (NUS)’s world-class faculties, expertise and advanced capabilities in 3D printing technology, to bring innovative products to the field of healthcare that will improve patient outcomes and change lives for the better. AM.NUS explores a whole new dimension in medicine, applying ground-breaking 3D printing technology for personalised patient treatments.

AM.NUS is the only multi-disciplinary Additive Manufacturing (AM) centre in an Institute of Higher Learning in Singapore which comprises five Faculties (Medicine, Science, Engineering, Dentistry and Design & Environment). The Centre is supported both internally by NUS and externally by National Additive Manufacturing Cluster (NAMIC) and Singapore Economic Development Board.
