Opis

Bioengineering is the application of the life sciences, physical sciences, mathematics in combination with engineering principles that define and solve problems in biology, medicine, health care, and other fields. It is used in the design of medical devices, diagnostic equipment, biocompatible materials, renewable bioenergy, ecological engineering, agricultural engineering, and other areas that improve the living standards of societies. This book entitled "Bioengineering: challenges & opportunities" aims to provide an up-to-date overview of the most recent approaches to the development of therapeutic strategies and medical devices and their associated applications. The authors of the book have created a guideline for researchers working in the biofabrication sectors for developing heart assist devices, biosensors, orthopedic medical devices, and neuroprosthetics, and for scientists working in the therapeutic areas to improve the apheresis technology, blood transfusions, modulation of the immune systems, cell and gene therapy.
