This volume focuses on the medical and biological applications of nanotechnology in our lives. Part One of the text presents three areas of basic science that change drastically as one moves from the everyday bulk scale to the meso-scale and the nanoscale. The second section covers fabrication and verification methods. It also introduces the concept of top-down and bottom-up self-assembly. Lastly, the book provides various applications of nanotechnology to the life sciences, including biocompatibility, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and neurological applications. Each application is linked to engineering design criteria.
