Produktbeschreibung

This book offers a comprehensive overview of present and future tissue engineering approaches and their contribution to regenerative medicine. It combines comprehensive reviews of the biology underlying the development and regeneration of different types of tissues in health and disease with the current and future strategies in regenerative medicine to meet clinical needs. Each chapter includes typical examples of methodologies and technical solutions as the basis for the most recent scientific findings and biomedical products, tables as mini-databases summarizing the most recent findings, and expert opinion on future research needs. There are exercises for students and links to specific websites in the main body of the text to complement a traditional reference list.
