Information literacy-the ability to find, evaluate, and use
information resources-is an important skill for future chemists.
Students and scientists need to distinguish between information
provided by Wikipedia, ChemSpider, research journals, and The New
York Times, depending on the intended use of the information
sought. Instructors and librarians may often teach these skills
through stand-alone database demonstrations, video tutorials, and
lectures. However, it is possible to teach these skills in a more
contextual and integrated manner by designing chemistry assignments
that incorporate information literacy as a learning outcome. This
book will prove useful for librarians and chemistry instructors who
are designing courses in which students develop information
literacy in the context of a chemistry course at two-year colleges,
public and private universities, and high schools. The chapters in
this book review the current state of information literacy in
chemistry and provide concrete examples of assignments and
interventions aimed at teaching information literacy skills in
chemistry curricula. A wide range of options are offered for
integrating information literacy into college-level chemistry
courses, including general chemistry, organic chemistry, science
courses for students not majoring in science, and chemistry
capstone research courses.

read, and think with, and see the world with' Max Porter In a
classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language
teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her
voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day
by day he is losing his sight. Soon they discover a deeper pain
binds them. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has
lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old
son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and
Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages. Greek

Recent advances witness the potential to employ nanomedicine and
game-changing methods to deliver drug molecules directly to
diseased sites. To optimize and then enhance the efficacy and
specificity, the control and guidance of drug carriers in
vasculature has become crucial. Current bottlenecks in the optimal
design of drug carrying particles are the lack of knowledge about
the transport of particles, adhesion on endothelium wall and
subsequent internalization into diseased cells. To study the
transport and adhesion of particle in vasculature, the authors have
made great efforts to numerically investigate the dynamic and
adhesive motions of particles in the blood flow. This book
discusses the recent achievements from the establishment of
fundamental physical problem to development of multiscale model,
and finally large scale simulations for understanding transport of
particle-based drug carriers in blood flow.

Biomedical Applications of Electrospinning and Electrospraying
describes the principles and laboratory set up for electrospinning
and electrospraying, addressing a range of biomedical applications.
Sections cover novel combinational approaches, such as
electrospinning/spraying and 3D printing. Electrospinning has
evolved from being a technique to prepare random networks of
textile fibers to a technique to fabricate highly ordered patterns
of biomedical materials of defined scale. The technological
advancements in recent years with regard to the way the jet is
facilitated, how the jet path is controlled, and how the fibers are
collected have provided invaluable insights into controlled
fabrication of a material of choice. Additionally, the electrospray
technique has also evolved from being a technique to prepare food
formulations to a technique to prepare cell encapsulated beads for
transplantation in clinics. Several innovations in this line, such
as those leading to core-shell materials have tremendously changed
the way the technique is used. Thus, a combinational approach using
electrospinning, electrospraying and 3D printing has emerged.

The experimental teaching of materials science and engineering
(MSE) is important because the comprehensive applications and the
practical knowledge of the professionals are not only an important
way for undergraduate students to grasp the knowledge but also to
understand the purpose of the study. In order to cultivate
students' ability to solve complex engineering problems, more
comprehensive experiments should be designed.Besides the essential
basic experiments in the first few chapters, most of the
experiments designed in this book are comprehensive, hence the
title. This book breaks the boundaries in the experimental courses
of MSE. The experiments in this book are modularized into five
parts, including preliminary exploration of materials science and
engineering, fundamentals of chemistry and crystallography,
material properties, material preparation and treatment, and
material applications. Besides the experiments, the appendices will
describe the most relevant aspects of experimental safety, error,
and data presentation in a general way. The contents and
requirements of the experimental report are suggested. At the end
of each chapter, a list of books, journal articles, and websites is
provided for extended reading on the topics covered in the
chapter.This book covers the main contents of experimental courses
of MSE. The experiments cover the forefront of scientific research
and the materials industry with appropriate modification. It
intends to serve as a textbook for undergraduate students and aims
to help teachers find a wide enough variety of experiments to
construct in an experimental course.
