Cassie's Schizophrenia Model
"The condition I chose to model was Schizophrenia. One thing I learned about this disease is that those afflicted can have up to 25% less gray matter in the frontal and temporal lobes than a healthy individual; a fact I tried to display in my project. There was a learning curve to using the 3D software and adjusting sizes with an x, y, and z-plane. But it was fun learning how to use the software in case I need it for the future, which with the way 3D printing is going, is more than likely. Overall, this was a very fascinating project and I’m happy with the way it turned out!"
