Anmerkungen / beschriftet / Stempel; Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten. Tissue engineering combines biology and engineering to heal or create new tissues after injury or disease. A successful tissue engineer must understand cellular biology, cell signaling, extracellular matrix development, and tissue structure, alongside engineering principles like stresses and strains, mass transfer, mechanical properties, and heat transfer. This text aims to equip the next generation of tissue engineers with a solid foundation in both fields. Students will explore how engineering concepts integrate with biological understanding to address biomedical challenges. Key topics include definitions of engineering principles, practical applications of stress-strain relationships, material strength, mass transfer, and heat transfer. Through examples and problem-solving, students will apply engineering equations to real tissue engineering scenarios. They will be introduced to various cell and tissue types, gaining insights into how to use cells for developing new tissues. Additionally, students will learn to select appropriate materials for tissue replacement, emphasizing the importance of understanding mechanical properties and degradability before implantation. The text also covers how force application, material selection, and temperature changes influence cell behavior and tissue development, highlighting the direct link between tissue structure and its properties.…

Tissue engineering uniquely applies concepts and techniques from biology and engineering in order to heal or produce new tissues after disease or traumatic injury. A successful tissue engineer must have knowledge of cellular biology, cell signaling, extracellular matrix development, and tissue structure and integrate it with the application of stresses and strains, mass transfer, mechanical properties, and heat transfer. In order to train the next generation of successful tissue engineers, this text gives the reader a background in both the engineering and biology associated with tissue engineering.
In reading this text, students will learn about these two different areas of study and how they can be integrated with one another to understand tissues in the human body and solve biomedical problems.
- Students will be introduced to definitions of engineering concepts, the practical use of stress-strain relationships, material strength, mass transfer, and heat transfer.
- Through examples and problems, students will apply engineering equations to medical and biomedical situations including actual tissue engineering problems.
- Students will be introduced to a variety of cell and tissue types and be given the background information necessary to apply the use of cells to the growth and development of new tissues.
- Students will learn how to select the proper material for the replacement of a particular tissue and why it is important to know about the mechanical properties and degradability of a material prior to implantation.
- Students will learn how the application of force, material selection, and changes in temperature can positively or negatively affect cell behavior and tissue development.
- Tissue structure will be described and students will learn about the direct relationship between the structure of a tissue and its properties.

About the Author
Joseph W. Freeman is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Rutgers University. He has worked in the areas of tendon development, the structure and mechanics of type I collagen, collagen mineralization and mechanical characterization, molecular modeling, soft tissue mechanics, and musculoskeletal tissue engineering. His primary research focus now lie in the design and fabrication of novel, functional scaffolds for the repair of musculoskeletal tissues, the use of novel biomaterials in tissue regeneration, developing therapies for tissue strengthening, collagen molecular modeling, and the use of tissue engineering techniques in cancer research. He has published over 100 papers and delivered numerous conference presentations in these areas. He has taught the first course in tissue engineering at Rutgers for the past seven years.
Debakrata Banerjee is an Associate Professor in the Department of Pharmacology at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical Center. He has been an active researcher in tissue engineering and now stem cell technologies over the past twelve years. His focus is on molecular mechanisms that use stem cells, which are proving to be highly beneficial to tissue regeneration. He has published over 150 papers in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine journals.

Im klaren Fokus stehen dabei Kundenkomfort und Benutzerfreundlichkeit. Unsere Plattform verspricht Leser*innen eine breite Auswahl sowie einen sicheren Kaufprozess. Von Bestsellern über Klassiker bis hin zu Nischenliteratur bietet wir auch lesefreudigen Österreicher*innen eine wahre Schatzkiste zu fairen Preisen. Im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Verkaufsplattformen gehen wir einen Schritt weiter, indem wir den gesamten Verkaufs- und Versandprozess übernehmen – angefangen beim professionellen Abfotografieren der Bücher bis hin zur Ermittlung eines fairen Preises sowie der Kommunikation mit potenziellen Käufer*innen. Verkäufer*innen schicken lediglich ihre Buchschätze an uns und warten, bis diese neue Besitzer*innen finden und das Entgelt bei ihnen eintrudelt. Die breitgefächerte Auswahl an Buch-Genres reicht von Klassikern, Bestsellern über alte Schätze und kultigen Comics bis hin zu Fachpublikationen. Wir bieten hunderttausende Titel aller Genres in vielen Sprachen, meist in perfektem Zustand an. Bei älteren oder beschädigten Büchern finden sich online detaillierte Bilder des Zustands auf unserer Website. Wir sind stolz, bereits 200.000 glückliche Bookbot-Kund*innen an Bord zu haben und bieten damit eine breite Community an vielen potentielle Käufer*innen. Nach gelungenen Markteintritten in Tschechien, Deutschland und der Slowakei, sind wir nun auch in Österreich tätig.…
