“…This timely book addresses key topics in tissue regeneration in a sequence of linked chapters, each written by world experts; understanding normal healing; sources of, and methods of using, stem cells; construction and use of scaffolds; and modelling and assessment of regeneration. …”

“…In recent years it has become clear that breast cancer is not a single disease but rather that the term encompasses a number of molecularly distinct tumors arising from the epithelial cells of the breast. There is an urgent need to better understand these distinct subtypes and develop tailored diagnostic approaches and treatments appropriate to each. …”

“…This book provides an update for the rapidly developing technology known as “optogenetics”, which is the use of genetically encoded light-sensitive molecular elements (usually derived from lower organisms) to control or report various physiological and biochemical processes within the cell. Two ongoing clinical trials use optogenetic tools for vision restoration, and optogenetic strategies have been suggested as novel therapies for several neurological, psychiatric and cardiac disorders. …”

“…Moreover, other research has introduced the production technology of stem cells and biomedical processes using nanoshells and extracellular vesicles. …”

“…The projects cover clean and advanced fossil fuel technologies (including carbon capture and storage), an entire range of renewable energies (including biofuels), hydrogen and fuel cells, end-use technologies for transport, buildings and industry, fusion and cross-sectional activities. …”

“…Lignin is one of the components of lignocellulosic biomass, and is the most rigid constituent and can be considered as a glue providing the cell wall with stiffness and the plant tissue with compressive strength. …”

“…In general, radiopharmaceuticals are either salts of radionuclides or radionuclides bound to biologically active molecules, drugs, or cells. Tremendous progress has been made in discovering, developing, and commercializing numerous radiopharmaceuticals for the imaging and therapy of cancer. …”

“…Based on the 38th annual conference of the International Society on Oxygen Transport to Tissue (ISOTT), held in Ascona, Switzerland in July 2010, this volume covers all aspects of oxygen transport from air to the cells, organs and organisms; instrumentation and methods to sense oxygen and clinical evidence. …”

“…Alternative protein sources, which include proteins derived from plant and animal cells, and by way of precision fermentation, can have health, environmental, socio-economic, and ethical impacts. …”

“…The products that drive the wireless communication industry, such as cell phones and pagers, employ circuits that operate at radio and microwave frequencies. …”

“…From DNA and individual cells through to the entire animal, this research uses different scientific methods to understand horses and donkeys in greater detail…”

“…ZnO has distinguished and interesting electrical and optical properties and is considered to be a potential material in optoelectronic applications such as solar cells, surface acoustic wave devices, and UV emitters. …”

“…It examines several economic applications of solid waste, such as innovative methods to generate bioelectricity from organic waste using microbial fuel cells and using solid waste as an alternative fuel in cement kilns…”

“…As a result, organisms have evolved complex genetic systems for the regulation of metal levels, including import, export, and sequestration of metals within cells and sub-cellular compartments. </p><p>The study of metal biology in insects has the potential to greatly expand our understanding of metal biology. …”

“…Within the realm of industrial microbiology, progress in the field of synthetic biology has enabled the development of, for example, new biosynthetic pathways for the production of renewable fuels and chemicals, programmable logic controls to regulate and optimize cell function, and robust microbes for the destruction of harmful environmental contaminants. …”

“…Plastids are plant cell-specific organelles of endosymbiotic origin that contain their own genome, the so-called plastome. …”

“…This book describes and defines the broad landscape in the research area of trace elements in anaerobic biotechnologies, from the level of advanced chemistry and single microbial cells, through to engineering and bioreactor technology and to the fate of trace elements in the environment. …”

“…Rigorous and careful biochemical studies ranging from in-vitro experiments on a plethora of human-cancer derived cell lines to in-vivo and ex-vivo studies allowed the authors to identify the molecular targets and gain useful information on structure–activity relationships (SAR). …”
