Bone Morphogenetic Proteins: From Local to Systemic Therapeutics
ISBN: 9783764385514 / Angielski / Twarda / 343 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Tissue engineering is gaining interest as it is applied for regeneration of organs to attain their lost function. Although resorbable scaffolds and progenitor cell types are required principles to engineer a functional tissue locally, the inductive signal is a prerequisite to trigger the growth and differentiation of responding cells in space and time. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), also called growth and differentiation factors (GDFs), originally identified from bone have been successfully used to regenerate the bone in humans. Most recent preclinical data suggests that BMPs have a... Tissue engineering is gaining interest as it is applied for regeneration of organs to attain their lost function.

Towards Humane Technologies : Biotechnology, New Media and Ethics
ISBN: 9789087904449 / Angielski / Miękka / 213 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What are the ethical and political implications when the very foundations of life -things of awe and spiritual significance - are translated into products accessible to few people? This book critically analyses this historic recontextualisation. Through mediation - when meaning moves from one text to another, from one discourse to another - biotechnology is transformed into analysable data and into public discourses.
The unique book links biotechnology with media and citizenship. As with any commodity, biological products have been commodified. Because enormous speculative investment...

Collaborative Value Creation: An Empirical Analysis of the European Biotechnology Industry
ISBN: 9783790821444 / Angielski / Twarda / 541 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Collaboration plays an important role in the early development of com- nies. Among others, they provide opportunities to combine complementary resources, develop additional competencies, and generate valuable signals for investors. They are particularly important for biotechnology firms, whose resource base often is not sufficient to realize the market potential of their R&D findings. Strategic alliances thus are an integral part of the business model of most biotechnology companies, but their economic re- vance is not yet fully understood, since research has thus far neglected most...
