Beschreibung

Biomaterials for Organ and Tissue Regeneration: New Technologies and Future Prospects examines the use of biomaterials in applications related to artificial tissues and organs. With a strong focus on fundamental and traditional tissue engineering strategies, the book also examines how emerging and enabling technologies are being developed and applied. Sections provide essential information on biomaterial, cell properties and cell types used in organ generation. A section on state-of-the-art in organ regeneration for clinical purposes is followed by a discussion on enabling technologies, such as bioprinting, on chip organ systems and in silico simulations.

Nihal Vrana is Co-founder of SPARTHA Medical. He holds B.Sc. (Biology) and M.Sc. (Biotechnology) degrees from Middle East Technical University. He obtained his PhD at Dublin City University as a Marie Curie ESR fellow. His major research interests are titanium and silicone implants, tissue engineering, cell encapsulation, antimicrobial surfaces, multifunctional coatings, immunomodulation, real-time monitoring of implants, biomaterial risk assessment and cell biomaterials interactions. He has coordinated 2 multi-partner, multinational EU projects (BiMot and IMMODGEL (www.immodgel.com)) and is currently coordinating a H2020 project (PANBioRA, www.panbiora.eu).

Helena Knopf-Marques is a Senior Researcher at PROTiP Medical. She has also been associate professor at Strasbourg University. She has been working with the development of new biomaterials since her graduation. She is a Chemical Engineer with a masters in Mechanical Engineering. She received her PhD from the Program in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Her main research interests are tissue engineering, multifunctional coatings, immunomodulation of biomaterial surfaces, 3D printing and cell biomaterial interactions. She is presently working on the EU Horizon 2020 project PANBioRA that aims to develop new instruments for biomaterials characterization and risk assessment.
