MUMBAI, India, April 20 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202514019062 A) filed by Shweta Singh, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, on March 4, 2025, for 'a cost effective method of making anatomical models which are replicas of original- a revolution in teaching and learning in anatomy.'

Inventor(s) include Shweta Singh; Sushobhana; and Kirti Gupta.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "We present a novel method for creating cost-effective anatomical models using a mother model derived from the original specimen. From this original specimen, we create a mold using liquid rubber, which is then used to produce replicas made of silicone, resin, and fiber mat. These replicas accurately capture all anatomical details, making them highly effective for teaching anatomical structures and their spatial orientation to medical students, as well as for use in schools and colleges. Additionally, these models are durable, non-allergenic, and easy to handle. Unlike real specimens, they are resistant to damage and, being cost-effective, they serve as a valuable adjunct in regular teaching and learning."
