BioCAD in Tissue Science and Engineering

摘要：

1. Introduction Tissue Engineering, the science and engineering of creating functional tissues and organs for transplantation, integrates a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines to produce physiologic “replacement parts for the development of viable substitutes which restore, maintain or improve the function of human tissues. In recent Multi-Agency Tissue Engineering Science (MATES) Interagency Working Group 1, the field of tissue engineering has been broaden and redefined as “the use of physical, chemical, biological, and engineering processes to control and direct the aggregate behavior of cells. In the success of tissue engineering, three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds play important roles as extra-cellular matrices onto which cells can attach, grow, and form new tissues. Modeling, design and fabrication of tissue scaffolds to meet multiple biological and biophysical requirements is always a challenge in regenerative tissue engineering.
