A 3D printed diagram of the brainstem and the circle of Willis (circular connection of arteries that supplies blood to the brain). The brainstem is printed white, and is connected to a large baseplate. The circle of Willis is printed in red, and is glued to the plate standing up. The circle looks like a stick figure with its arms outstretched. The entire 3D print is standing up on a table on a black mat in front of a black computer.
