Feelin’ DNA, started by UNC students, inspires the visually impaired with 3D-printed models
Posted Oct 25, 2017
Feelin’ DNA, founded by UNC biology and biomedical engineering students, is inspiring the visually impaired by providing tactile learning tools for STEM subjects. STEM curricula often focus on visual aids, textbooks and online images that are largely inaccessible to visually impaired students. The Feelin’ DNA team works to translate those images into 3-D models.
