The NOVA School of Science and Technology team, which is producing face masks using 3D printing, provides the model it is using to expand the production capacity of this personal protective equipment.
The program, launched on March 23, invited the academic and scientific community to propose real solutions — regional, national and international — to the challenges created by the pandemic.
