Nanomaterials for the Life Sciences - 2: Nanostructured Oxides

Informationen zum Autor Challa Kumar is currently the Director of Nanofabrication & Nanomaterials at the Center for Advanced Microstructures and Devicees (CAMD)! Baton Rouge! USA. He is also the President and CEO of Magnano Technologies! a company established to commercialize nanomaterials for applications in life sciences. His research interests are in developing novel synthetic methods! including those based on microfluidic reactors! for multifunctional nanomaterials. He has also been involved in the development of innovative therapeutic & diagnostic tools based on nanotechnology. He has eight years of industrial R&D experience working for Imperial Chemical Industries and United Breweries. He is the founding Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Biomedical Nanotechnology! published by American Scientific Publishers and Series editor for the ten-volume book series! Nanotechnologies for the Life Sciences (NtLS)! published by Wiley-VCH. Klappentext The SeriesThe new book series "Nanomaterials for the Life Sciences"! successor to the highly acclaimed series "Nanotechnology for the Life Sciences"! provides an in-depth overview of all nanomaterial types and their uses in the life sciences. Each volume is dedicated to a specific material class and covers fundamentals! synthesis and characterization strategies! structure-property relationships and biomedical applications. The new series brings nanomaterials to the life scientists and life science to the materials scientists so that synergies are seen and developed to the fullest.Written by international experts of various facets of this exciting field of research! the ten volumes of this single source of information comprehensively cover the complete range of nanomaterials for medical! biological and cybernetic applications. The series is aimed at scientists of the following disciplines: biology! chemistry! materials science! physics! bioengineering! and medicine! together with cell biology! biomedical engineering! pharmaceutical chemistry! and toxicology! both in academia and fundamental research as well as in pharmaceutical companies.Volume 2: Nanostructured OxidesVolume 2 covers in part one the aspects of nanostructured silica and zirconia materials and in part two the aspects of other inorganic nanostructured oxides.For more information on NmLS! please visitwww.NmLS.wiley-vch.de Zusammenfassung 'Nanostructured Oxides' covers in part one the aspects of metal oxide nanomaterials and in part two the aspects of other inorganic nanostructured oxides.
