The Series
Nanotechnologies for the Life Sciences (NtLS) is the first
comprehensive source Covering the Convergence of materials and life
sciences on the nanoscale, a wide field of research which brings
together the main technology drive of the 21st century and
existing, multibillion dollar markets.
Written by international experts describing the various facets
of nanofabrication, the ten volumes of NTLS provide the underlying
nanotechnologies for the design, creation and characterization of
medical, biological and cybernetic applications. Each volume
addresses in detail one particular facet of the field.
Tailor-made nanomaterials find widespread new opportunities in
diagnostic and monitoring microdevices, microsurgery tools and
instruments, tissue engineering, drug delivery artificial organs
and any more. Making information available from all kinds of
specialized sources through the disciplines involved, NtLS is
essential reading for all scientists working in this field from
medicine and biology through chemistry, materials science and
physics to engineering.
