3D Bioprinting in Tissue and Organ Regeneration

3D Bioprinting in Tissue and Organ Regeneration covers state-of-the-art advances and applications in bioprinting. Beginning with an introduction that considers techniques, bioinks and construct design, the authors then move onto a detailed review of applications of bioprinting in different biomedical fields (skin, cartilage, bone, vascularized tissue, etc.). This is followed by a chapter overview of intraoperative bioprinting, which is widely considered one of the important future trends in this area. Finally, the authors tackle ethical and regulation concerns regarding the utilization of bioprinting.

The book is written by three global experts for an audience of students and professionals with some basic knowledge of bioprinting, but who seek a deeper understanding of the biomedical applications involved in bioprinting.

Wu, Yang: - Dr. Yang Wu is an assistant professor at Harbin Institute of Technology, China. Dr. Wu has been doing research in this field since his PhD study from 2012. He is experienced in 3D bioprinting and regenerative medicine, particularly in the application area of connective tissue repair such as cartilage, bone, skin and tendon. His current research interests in 3D bioprinting and tissue engineering, include: scaffold-free bioprinting, applications of bioprinted structures in tissue engineering, electrohydrodynamic jet printing and electrospinning. He has published more than 20 research and review articles in renowned journals and books in the field, as well as 3 patents and several conference papers.Fuh, Jerry: - Dr. Jerry Fuh Dr. J Fuh is a Professor in Department of Mechanical Engineering at the National University of Singapore (NUS). He has devoted himself to the research of additive manufacturing or 3D printing processes and materials since 1995. In 2016, he and his colleagues established a 3DP-enable biomedical hub within the NUS premise across 5 different faculties, i.e., engineering, science, deign, dental and medicine, to be one of its few kinds to promote transnational works on biomedical and health-care research under the NAMIC, EDB and University Funding of more than SGD$18M.Ozbolat, Ibrahim Tarik: - Ibrahim Tarik Ozbolat is an associate professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics Department, Biomedical Engineering Department, the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences, and the Materials Research Institute at The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania, USA. Previously, he was a faculty member of The University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, USA, and spearheaded Advanced Manufacturing Technology Group and the Biomanufacturing Laboratory. He received his PhD in tissue engineering from the Industrial and Systems Engineering Department at the University at Buffalo (SUNY) in Buffalo, New York, USA, and dual BS degrees in Mechanical Engineering and in Industrial Engineering from Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey. Dr. Ozbolat is an internationally recognized expert in the area of 3D bioprinting. His research on bioprinting for tissue and organ fabrication has been published in several high quality of venues, received numerous national and international awards, and featured in national and international media, broadcast TVs, and press numerous times. He frequently gives invited talks at national and international forums, conferences, and seminars and organizes demonstrations and events to public and youth to encourage participation of future's engineers in medicine, engineering, and science.
