The book covers theory, advances, and applications of biomaterials. It reviews fabrication and properties of different classes of biomaterials and biocompatibility and discusses nanotechnology. It details methods to characterize properties of biomaterials and how to tailor properties for different applications.
Biomaterials Science and Technology: Fundamentals and Developments presents a broad scope of the field of biomaterials science and technology, focusing on theory, advances, and applications. It reviews the fabrication and properties of different classes of biomaterials such as bioinert, bioactive, and bioresorbable, in addition to biocompatibility. It further details traditional and recent techniques and methods that are utilized to characterize major properties of biomaterials. The book also discusses modifications of biomaterials in order to tailor properties and thus accommodate different applications in the biomedical engineering fields and summarizes nanotechnology approaches to biomaterials.

This book targets students in advanced undergraduate and graduate levels in majors related to fields of Chemical Engineering, Materials Engineering and Science, Biomedical Engineering, Bioengineering, and Life Sciences. It assists in understanding major concepts of fabrication, modification, and possible applications of different classes of biomaterials. It is also intended for professionals who are interested in recent advances in the emerging field of biomaterials.

Prof. Yaser Dahman is a faculty member at the rank of Full Professor of Chemical Engineering at Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada. He has research focus on several emerging areas of technology in the fields of biotechnology and nanotechnology, with special interest in biomedical engineering. He has commissioned a state-of-the-art research facility at Ryerson to conduct his research projects, which were funded by several agencies including Ryerson University, NSERC, and Ministry of Agriculture Canada. Prof. Dahman has long experience in developing medical devices for the health care industry, such as developing and testing novel wound dressing materials for chronic wounds. His is currently working on designing and synthesizing novel nanostructured biomaterials with focus on improving the health care industry.
