The 3D-Printed Fruit-fly

We all learn more easily when we can hold, touch, feel, break apart and put together again an object. We have made a 3D-Printed Fruit-fly and a 3D-Printed Drosophila brain.

You can get and download the files to print yourself here, or you can order from us a full-printed, assembled and painted fruit-fly or fruit-fly brain.

You can also get post-cards, images and posters on the 3DPrinted Fruit-fly, 3D-Anatomy of the Fruit-fly, the Fruit-fly brain here.
