20 Years of Meaningful Innovations in Healthcare: Statistical Shape Models and Their Applications

A laptop is on a white background. A blue screensaver is displayed on the laptop with the words "20th anniversary," and this sentence is repeated three times around a trophy with a golden sphere. The words "Mimics Innovation Awards" are on the trophy's base.

About this webinar

To mark the 20th anniversary of the Mimics Innovation Awards, Materialise Founder and Chairman of the Board, Fried Vancraen, reflects on two decades of innovation and groundbreaking research in this webinar.


At this special event, the 2024 Mimics Innovation Award winner, Florianne van Schaardenburgh, will also present her research on a new method of using statistical shape models (SSM) to predict the shape of the proximal humerus in complex fracture reconstructions. Our 3D medical software experts will explain how SSM can be used as a powerful tool for researchers, showcasing real-world examples of its use in developing innovative medical treatments and devices.

What you will learn

  • Reflections from Fried on the impact of the Mimics Innovation Awards, fostering innovation in the medical field for two decades
  • How SSM can be easily created in Mimics to explore the anatomical variability of a population, advancing medical treatments and patient care
  • Practical advice on how to leverage SSM during your own research or for different medical applications, such as creating premorbid anatomies and average or extreme patient cases
  • The impact of engineering on the anatomy in a live Q&A session with experts and researchers
