This comprehensive work discusses novel biomolecular surfaces that have been
engineered to either control or measure cell function at the atomic, molecular,
and cellular levels. Each chapter presents real results, concepts, and expert
perspectives of how cells interact with biomolecular surfaces, with particular
emphasis on interactions within complex mechanical environments such as in the
cardiovascular system. In addition, the book provides detailed coverage of
inflammation and cellular immune response as a useful model for how engineering
concepts and tools may be effectively applied to complex systems in biomedicine.
-Accessible to biologists looking for new ways to model their results and
engineers interested in biomedical applications
-Useful to
