Overview

This book outlines the latest research on the design and fabrication of the biomaterials used in mimicked scaffolds for tissue engineering for maxillofacial and orthopedic applications. The book is written based on integration and optimized concepts of 3 main parts 1) principle of tissue engineering; 2) mimicking of structure and function of scaffolds which is similar to extracellular matrix (ECM); and 3) mimicked scaffolds for tissue engineering in maxillofacial and orthopedic surgery. The content of this book which is interdisciplinary in nature caters to medical product designers, materials scientists and engineers, biologists, and surgeons who have interest in the field of bone tissue engineering.

Author Information

Dr. Jirut Meesane worked in the group of Professor Dr. Karl-Friedrich Arndt, Institute of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry, Physical Chemistry of Polymer, Faculty of Natural Science, Dresden University of Technology, Dresden, Germany, 2004. Then, he started to work as Dr-Ing candidate in the group of Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Pompe and Dr. Michael Gelinsky, Max Bergmann Center of Biomaterials, Institute of Materials Science, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Dresden University of Technology, Dresden, Germany, 2005. His research work was focused on tissue engineering scaffolds. He obtained Dr.-Ing from Technical University of Dresden (TU Dresden), Germany, 2009. Then, he jointed to Faculty of Agro-Industry, Prince of Songkla University, as Lecturer in the Department of Materials Product Technology. In 2011, he has moved to Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Medicine, Prince of Songkla University, as Lecturer and Investigator in biomaterials, biomimetic, and tissue engineering until now. In 2011 and 2016, he was promoted as Assistant Professor and Associate Professor in Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Medicine, Prince of Songkla University, respectively. His works have been emphasized on tissue engineering scaffolds based on mimicking design for surgery. Those scaffolds were mainly focused on oral, cranio-facial, and orthopedic surgery. Furthermore, he has started to carry on the scaffolds with multifunction for tissue disease treatment. He has also developed the created scaffolds with specific function as biomaterials for diagnostic and evaluation of biological function of bioactive molecule. He has both national and international research collaborations with scientist, engineer, and clinician in university and research institute.
