Description
This publication is the fifth proceedings volume in a series of Symposia on Tissue Engineering for Therapeutic Use, sponsored by the Japan Society for Promotion of Science (JSPS). The previous four volumes have all been published as part of the ICS series. Since the publication of the first volume, great strides have been made in the study of tissue engineering, such as the announcement by two US research groups on the success of isolation and identification of human ES and EG cells. This interdisciplinary volume presents the latest state-of-the-art in tissue engineering, such as cell sheet engineering and the use of bioartificial organs. It also includes an update on the advances made in the Tissue Engineering Project for the Research for the Future Program.

Perfect for biologists, material scientists and clinicians with interests in tissue engineering.

Audience
Biologists, Material scientists and clinicians with interests in tissue engineering
