Maintaining quality of life in an ageing population is one of the
great challenges of the 21st Century. This book and collection of
illustrated CD lectures summarises how this challenge is being met
by multi-disciplinary developments of specialty biomaterials,
devices, artificial organs and in-vitro growth of human cells as
tissue engineered constructs.
Biomaterials, Artificial Organs and Tissue Engineering is intended
for use as a textbook in a one semester course for upper level BS,
MS and Meng students. The 25 chapters are organized in five parts:
Part one provides an introduction to living and man-made materials
for the non-specialist; Part two is an overview of clinical
applications of various biomaterials and devices; Part three
summarises the bioengineering principles, materials and designs
used in artificial organs; Part four presents the concepts, cell
techniques, scaffold materials and applications of tissue
engineering; Part five provides an overview of the complex
socio-economic factors involved in technology based healthcare,
including regulatory controls, technology transfer processes and
ethical issues. Each chapter is supplemented with illustrated Power
Point lectures and study questions in an easy to use CD to aid the
reader in self-paced instruction.
