Despre această carte electronică
For medical devices that must be placed inside the body, the right choice of material is the most important aspect of design. To ensure such devices are safe, reliable, economical, and biologically and physiologically compatible, the modern biomedical engineer must have a broad knowledge of currently available materials and the properties that affe
Despre autor
Dr. Joyce Y. Wong is a Clare Boothe Luce associate professor in biomedical engineering (BME) and associate chair of graduate studies in the department of biomedical engineering at Boston University. Dr.Wong’s research focuses on the development of biomaterials to probe how structure, material properties and composition of the cell-biomaterial interface affect fundamental cellular processes. Her current research interests include tissue engineering of small diameter blood vessels for bypass and intravascular pharmacology (e.g. stents); development of targeted nano- and micro-particle contrast agents for multimodal (magnetic resonance, ultrasound, and optical) detection of atherosclerotic and vulnerable plaque; and engineering biomimetic systems to study restenosis and breast cancer. Awards she has received include a NSF Career Award and Dupont Young Professor Award. Dr. Wong is currently the associate director of the Center for Nanoscience and Nanobiotechnology at Boston University. She has served on NIH Study Section panels, and is on the editorial advisory board of the journal Polymer Reviews and co-editor of Biointerphases. She is also an active member of the American Chemical Society, Biomedical Engineering Society, Materials Research Society, AVS Science and Technology (executive committee member, Biomaterials Interfaces Division), Biophysical Society, Society for Biomaterials, and American Society of Cell Biology. Joseph D. Bronzino received the B.S.E.E. degree from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA, in 1959, the M.S.E.E. degree from the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA, in 1961, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 1968. He is presently the Vernon Roosa Professor of Applied Science, an endowed chair at Trinity College, Hartford, CT and President of the Biomedical Engineering Alliance and Consortium (BEACON), which is a nonprofit organization consisting of academic and medical institutions as well as corporations dedicated to the development and commercialization of new medical technologies (for details visit www.beaconalliance.org). He is the author of over 200 articles and 11 books including the following: Technology for Patient Care (C.V. Mosby, 1977), Computer Applications for Patient Care (Addison-Wesley, 1982), Biomedical Engineering: Basic Concepts and Instrumentation (PWS Publishing Co., 1986), Expert Systems: Basic Concepts (Research Foundation of State University of New York, 1989), Medical Technology and Society: An Interdisciplinary Perspective (MIT Press and McGraw-Hill, 1990), Management of Medical Technology (Butterworth/Heinemann, 1992), The Biomedical Engineering Handbook (CRC Press, 1st ed., 1995; 2nd ed., 2000; Taylor & Francis, 3rd ed., 2005), Introduction to Biomedical Engineering (Academic Press, 1st ed., 1999; 2nd ed., 2005). Dr. Bronzino is a fellow of IEEE and the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE), an honorary member of the Italian Society of Experimental Biology, past chairman of the Biomedical Engineering Division of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE), a charter member and presently vice president of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering (CASE), a charter member of the American College of Clinical Engineering (ACCE) and the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI), past president of the IEEE-Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS), past chairman of the IEEE Health Care Engineering Policy Committee (HCEPC), past chairman of the IEEE Technical Policy Council in Washington, DC, and presently editor-in-chief of Elsevier’s BME Book Series and Taylor & Francis’ Biomedical Engineering Handbook. Dr. Bronzino is also the recipient of the Millennium Award from IEEE/EMBS in 2000 and the Goddard Award from Worcester Polytechnic Institute for Professional Achievement in June 2004.
