Biomaterial science : anatomy and physiology aspects / Ludwig Erik Aguilar

This book bridges the gap between a clinician’s and material scientists’ knowledge by elucidating upon the different biomaterials used in anatomical systems and how those materials react to the human body. It explores both established and future prospective of biomaterial types/designs, and considerations in material selection and synthesis, to guide students from non-clinical background in understanding the relations of material science and the human body. This book covers Anatomy and Physiology, Synthesis and Characterization of biomaterials, the immune response to biomaterials, Biomaterials used for Cancer; Drug Delivery and Tissue Engineering, as well as the role of artificial intelligence.
