Anatomic pathology resident William O’Neill won the best poster award in the Post Doc category at the Center for Genome Research and Biocomputing conference last week.
His poster illustrates a process for Creating 3-Dimensional Models from Serial Histologic Sections Using Open-Source Software. Although labor intensive, this method allows the creation of 3D models on a home computer without special software, and may have applications in both teaching and research.
