Tissue Engineering is a comprehensive introduction to the engineering and biological aspects of this critical subject. With contributions from internationally renowned authors, it provides a broad perspective on tissue engineering for students coming to the subject for the first time. Key topics covered include stem cells; morphogenesis and cellular signaling; the extracellular matrix; biocompatibility; scaffold design and fabrication; controlled release strategies; bioreactors; tissue engineering of skin, cartilage, bone and organ systems; and ethical issues. New to this edition; * Coverage of the interface between science and regulatory authorities.* Commercial considerations in Tissue Engineering and standard models for pre-clinical development of tissue engineering technologies.* New chapters on; microfabrication, materiomics, and cell/biomaterial interface. * Effectively surveys major foundational topics in tissue engineering (cells, materials, biologically active factors) in an accessible and approachable fashion* Includes state of the art experiment break-out boxes, chapter objectives, chapter summaries, and multiple choice questions to aid learning.* Surpasses books that provide a collection of research and protocols by presenting an insightful examination of the different aspects of tissue engineering.
