Beskrivning

Biomaterials as a research theme is highly socially relevant with impactful applications inhuman healthcare. In this context, this book provides a state-of-the-art perspective onbiomaterials research in India and globally. It presents a sketch of the Indian landscapeagainst the backdrop of the international developments in biomaterials research.Furthermore, this book presents highlights from major global institutes of importance,and challenges and recommendations for bringing inventions from the bench to thebedside. It also presents valuable information to those interested in existing issuespertaining to developing the biomaterials research ecosystem in developing countries.The contents also serve to inspire and educate young researchers and students to take upresearch challenges in the areas of biomaterials, biomedical implants, and regenerativemedicine. With key recommendations for developing frontier research andpolicy, italso speaks to science administrators, policymakers, industry experts, and entrepreneurs onhelping shape the future of biomaterials research and development.
