| Short description
Advanced Biomaterials provides a broad introduction to the field, encompassing fundamentals, processing, and applications. With contributions from leading experts from around the world, it covers a wide range of topics, emphasizing emerging areas of interest including nanobiomaterials, interface tissue engineering, new manufacturing techniques such as Laser Assisted Net Shaping (LENS), and new polymeric materials. This is an excellent textbook for upper level undergraduate and graduate students, as well as a practical self-teaching guide for researchers and practitioners interested in the field.
