Abstract: "This Volume focuses on tissue engineering and the nanomaterials aspects surrounding it. How to construct the actual tissue to desired shape is covered, as are the different material types to use and their synthesis. Cellular engineering and biomaterial surfaces are a further major topic of this volume."--BOOK JACKET.
