Tissue Engineering of Cartilage and Bone

by Jamie A. Goode and Derek J. Chadwick

Tissue engineering takes advantages of the combined use of cultured living cells and three-dimensional scaffolds to reconstruct adult tissues that are absent or malfunctioning. This book brings together scientists and clinicians working on a variety of approaches for regenerating of damaged or lost cartilage and bone to assess the progress of this dynamic field.

In its early days, tissue engineering was driven by material scientists who designed...
