  • Fundamentals of Brain Organoids for Neurological Diseases

    • 1st Edition
    • Balachandar Vellingiri + 1 more
    • English
    Researchers use brain organoids to study the formation of neural tissues, investigate the processes involved in brain development, and gain a better understanding of neurological disorders and diseases. Brain organoids are particularly useful in studying developmental disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and infectious diseases that affect the brain. Fundamental of Brain Organoids for Neurological Diseases provides a practical resource for researchers on how to utilize and apply brain organoids. This book is organized into nine distinct sections, guiding the reader through each step from advanced overview of what organoids are to the use of brain organoids in various neurodevelopmental disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. In later sections, this book reviews the necessary methods involved in organoid development including the elements and challenges involved. This book will serve as a valuable tool for researchers, helping to advance the understanding of brain biology and disease mechanisms.

  • Quantitative Human Physiology

    An Introduction
    • 3rd Edition
    • Joseph J Feher
    • English
    Quantitative Human Physiology: An Introduction, Third Edition, winner of a 2018 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty), is the first text to meet the needs of the undergraduate bioengineering student who is being exposed to physiology for the first time but requires a more analytical/quantitat... approach. This book explores how component behavior produces system behavior in physiological systems. Through text explanation, figures, and equations, it provides the engineering student with a basic understanding of physiological principles, with an emphasis on quantitative aspects. The third edition has been revised with more and expanded problem sets and improved illustrations.
