For graduate students, biomedical researchers, professors, and industrial experts working in biomaterials, stem cells, and tissue engineering, Ramalingam (biomaterials and tissue engineering, U. of Strasbourg, France) et al. assemble 25 chapters exploring applications for biomaterials and stem cell therapy and recent research on suitable cell scaffolds and substrates for tissue repair and reconstruction. Researchers working in engineering, regenerative medicine, biomaterials, chemistry, materials science, medicine, and other areas in Europe, the US, and Asia describe polymeric systems for stem cell delivery; the potential of membranes and porous scaffolds in tissue repair, including myocardial, peridontal, ophthalmic, and bone tissues; the optimization of the interaction between stem cells and biomaterial substrates; the source nature of stem cells for tissue engineering applications; and the clinical translation of stem cell-based tissue engineering for regenerative medicine.
