About this book
This book explores in depth a wide range of functional biomaterials-based systems for drug, gene delivery, and biomedical aspects. The chapters cover newer technologies such as polymeric micelle, pH-responsive biomaterials, stimuli-responsive hydrogels, silk fibroin, inorganic biomaterials, synthetic biomaterials, 3D printed biomaterials, metallic biomaterials, ceramic and hybrid biomaterials. It also describes the theranostic approaches for cancer therapy, the biomaterials-based nanofibers scaffolds in tissue engineering, as well as the strategies applications of metallic biomaterials for the medical and dental prosthetic field. This newer and updated approach will be attractive for biomedical engineering students working on materials science in the development of novel drug delivery strategies. The book will be an important reference for researchers and professionals working on biomaterial research in the pharmaceutical and medical fields.

About the editors
Dr. Subrata Jana is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry, Indira Gandhi National Tribal University (Central University), Amarkantak, Madhya Pradesh, India. His current research focuses on the design and synthesis of artificial receptors for the recognition of anions, cations, and biomolecules along with biodegradable polymeric-based carrier systems for the delivery of drug molecules. So far, he has published around 40 research papers in peer-reviewed international journals and contributed more than 20 book chapters in edited books published by internationally renowned publishers. He is currently serving as executive editor of Mekal Insights, the official research journal of IGNTU. He also served as a reviewer for international journals.
Subrata has obtained his Ph.D. in organic chemistry from the Indian Instituteof Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST), Shibpur, India. Then he worked with Professor (Dr.) Fraser Hof at the University of Victoria, Canada, and Dr. Kenneth J Woycechowsky at the University of Utah, USA, as a postdoc. Overall, he has extensively studied the supramolecular behavior of the host-guest interaction and synthesis of different heterocyclic moieties.
