  • Zusatztext

    • The book provides experienced as well as young researchers with a topical view of the vibrant field of soft nanotechnology. In addition to elucidating the underlying concepts and principles that drive continued innovation, major parts of each chapter are devoted to detailed discussions of potential and already realized applications of micro- and nanogel- based materials. Examples of the diverse areas impacted by these materials are biocompatible coatings for implants, films for controlled drug release, self-healing soft materials and responsive hydrogels that react to varying pH conditions, temperature or light.

  • Autorenportrait
    • L. Andrew Lyon is a Professor in the School of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA. After his PhD in Physical Chemistry from Northwestern University he joined Penn State University as a postdoctoral research associate before pursuing his independent academic career at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Professor Lyon has authored more than 100 articles, contributed to nine books and holds seven patents. His research interests center around the development and implementation of new materials, particularly hydrogel nanoparticles, for applications in bioanalysis and regenerative medicine. Michael J. Serpe is Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alberta, Canada. He completed his PhD in Analytical Chemistry at the Georgia Institute of Technology and then held positions as postdoctoral fellow at the University of Melbourne, Australia, at World Precision Instruments, Inc., and at Duke University, USA. Professor Serpe has published more than 30 peer-reviewed articles and has delivered numerous invited lectures globally. His group is interested in understanding the fundamental properties of soft, responsive, functional, polymeric materials for a myriad of applications.
