ResourcesHealthtech Makerspace
Mission Statement
Our makerspace encourages USC students, faculty, and community to explore advanced technology and design, driving innovation in assistive devices. Rooted in innovation, accessibility, creativity, and patient-centered design, we provide hands-on training in 3D printing, 3D modeling, coding, and Arduino technology, fostering user-driven solutions adaptable to individualized needs. By equipping future and current clinicians with the skills to design adaptable assistive devices, we bridge the gap between technology and patient care, inspiring creative problem-solving in healthcare. Our long-term vision is to sustain and expand this makerspace, continuously evolving as a hub for medical innovation and collaboration.
