The book provides an overview of the development and applications of clinically relevant hydrogels, used particularly in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and drug delivery. It approaches the topic from chemistry, materials science, biology, medicine, nanotechnology, and bioengineering points of view. The book first reviews proteins and polysaccharides that mimic extracellular matrix. This is followed by the discussion of generation and applications of supramolecular hydrogels. The final part of the book covers design and functions of cell encapsulation systems.

Ricardo A. Pires is a Senior Researcher at 3B's (Biomaterials, Biodegradables and Biomimetics) Research Group at University of Minho, GuimarAGBPes, Portugal, and works part of the European Institute of Excellence on Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine at University of Minho. He did his Ph.D. at Instituto Superior TA (c)cnico, University of Lisbon, Portugal in 2004. His research interests include supramolecular hydrogels, protein aggregation, and bionanomaterials.
