Tissue Engineering: Current Status and Challenges bridges the gap between biomedical scientists and clinical practitioners. The work reviews the history of tissue engineering, covers the basics required for the beginner, and inspires those in the field toward future research and application emerging in this fast-moving field. Written by global experts in the field for those studying and researching tissue engineering, the book reviews regenerative technologies, stem cell research and regeneration of organs. It then moves to soft tissue engineering (heart, vascular, muscle and 3D scaffolding and printing), hard tissue engineering (bone, dental myocardial and musculoskeletal) and translational avenues in the field.
Introduces readers to the history and benefits of tissue engineering
Includes coverage of new techniques and technologies, such as nanotechnology and nanoengineering
Presents concepts, ideology and theories which form the foundation for next-generation tissue engineering
Graduate students, and early career researchers, engineers and professionals in biomedical and medical science
