Product Description
Advances in Tissue Engineering is a unique volume and the first of its kind to bring together leading names in the field of tissue engineering and stem cell research. A relatively young science, tissue engineering can be seen in both scientific and sociological contexts and successes in the field are now leading to clinical reality. This book attempts to define the path from basic science to practical application. A contribution from the UK Stem Cell Bank and opinions of venture capitalists offer a variety of viewpoints, and exciting new areas of stem cell biology are highlighted. With over fifty stellar contributors, this book presents the most up-to-date information in this very topical and exciting field. Contents: Tissue Engineering: Past, Present and Future; Cells for Tissue Engineering; Materials; Non-Invasive Methods to Monitor Tissue Re-Modelling; Biotechnology Sector; Tissue Engineering Products; Tissue Repair; Cardiac Repair; Osteoarticular Repair; Lung Repair. |
