Biomaterials The Intersection of Biology and

Intended for use in an introductory course on biomaterials, taught primarily in departments of biomedical engineering. The book covers classes of materials commonly used in biomedical applications, followed by coverage of the biocompatibility of those materials with the biological environment. Finally, it covers some in-depth applications of biomaterials. It does all of this with an overall emphasis on tissue engineering.

Johnna S. Temenoff and Antonios G. Mikos, co-authors of Biomaterials: The Intersection of Biology and Materials Science, have been chosen to receive the 2010 Meriam/Wiley Distinguished Author Award from the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). This marks the first time that authors of a biomedical engineering textbook have been recognized with this award.
