Just back from two weeks in Europe, it is time to share what happened back there.
After Brussels, for the day of zero tolerance against FGM/C (see previous post), I went to Geneva to attend a multiplicity of events and meet a plethora of uber nice colleagues, collaborators and friends.
The first of those are Julien Da Costa and Christophe Lamy, from the Anatomy Unit of the University of Geneva. They developed a fantastic software named Sketchnote3D, specially developed for using 3D scanned material in educational settings.
They were nice enough to partner with SEX-ED + in the early stages of the development of the 3D genital database (still not released to the public but fully functional). Sketchnote 3D allows the viewing of the 3D files without the risks of them being grabbed and stolen, which was a major concern for the Genital database project as I am bounded to my models and have to make sure that their body reproductions are not used in a setting that would be disrespectful to them.
Their work with photogrametry and 3D allows for the digital preservation of anatomical collections, from preserved cadaveric material to wax casts of syphilitic lesions.
