Bioprinting

Bioprinting: From Multidisciplinary Design to Emerging Opportunities describes state-of-the-art techniques and highlights open issues of different aspects that affect the efficiency of bioprinting protocols. Starting from a description of the main bioprinting technologies, the book addresses the most advanced approaches for the design of "on-demand" biomaterials suitable for incorporating biological components, along with the challenges associated with the development of a cellular model, and with the biological read-out. Coverage includes intelligent process design techniques, emerging technologies, and specific applications. Written by a highly interdisciplinary team of authors and presenting a unified approach to bioprinting, this book is ideal for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers in biotechnology, engineering, and physics, as well as industrial researchers interested in the applications of bioprinting.Presents the basic methodological aspects in common between different applications of bioprintingCovers the most advanced approaches, including novel technologies, printable chemical strategies for 3D biomaterials, multi-criteria bioinks evaluation, bioprinting for skeletal tissue regeneration, and disease modelingProvides protocols, global perspectives, and up-to-date techniques by leading experts in the field Read more
