Hi,
This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.
Thanks

Scientists Harness the Power of 3D Printers in the Battle to Cure Cancer

The fight to cure cancer exists in a three-dimensional world, but up until now scientists have had to make do with first testing therapies in the flatlands of a petri dish. Thanks to efforts of a team from Drexel University led by Prof. Wei Sun, prototypes of tumors can be created using the additive manufacturing of 3D printers. This allows researchers to bypass the two-dimensional stage and focus on tumors that not only use real cancer cells, but behave more like the real beast.
