Programs used
This project was created in cooperation with the BioEntrepreneurship & Innovation (BEI) program of the University of Zurich.
I worked on the project “Swiros” by Scott Finlay and Salim Darwiche, who helped us as scientific mentors throughout the project.
Swiros promises an innovation in healing cartilage defects, growing cartilage implants with stem cells in a bioreactor.
The goal of this project was to develop a visualization concept that addresses one aspect of the project and offers prospects for real-world use of the visualization products.

Concept
Implantation - Step by Step
Swiros developed a biological implant for repairing cartilage defects in active patients. After finishing the development stage, it is crucial to teach surgeons how this new procedure works. For this reason, I decided to create visualizations showing the different steps of this surgery.
In nine images I have visualized the surgery reduced to its key moments. To best show what is happening inside the cartilage and bone during the surgery, I decided on a sectional view. I have chosen a reduced style for the visualizations to focus on the steps themselves instead of details in color and material. This style also demonstrates further how simple the surgery will be. My final result is a series of nine images which inform surgeons as well as interested patients about the different steps of the implantation.
