A biomaterial is defined as a substance that has been engineered to take a form which, alone or as part of a complex system, is used to direct, by control of interactions with components of living systems, the course of any therapeutic or diagnostics procedures. They are used in close contact with biological systems, tissues and fluids and to serve a medical purpose, such as replacing a damaged organ or treating a disease. They play an integral role in medicine – restoring function and facilitating healing for people after injury or disease. Biomaterials may be natural or synthetic and are used in medical applications to support, enhance or replace damaged tissue or biological function. The first historical use of biomaterials dates to antiquity, when ancient Egyptians used sutures made from animal sinew. The modern field of biomaterials combine medicine, biology, physics, and chemistry and more recent influences from tissue engineering and materials science. The field has grown significantly over the past decade, largely due to discoveries in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine and more, and in this book a new generation of biomaterials; particles, capsules, microbubbles and fibres are elucidated.Part of IOP Series in Global Health and Radiation Oncology.

Clifford Paterson Medal and Lecture – Winner 2024

Clifford Paterson Medal and Lecture – Winner 2024

Professor Mohan Edirisinghe OBE, FREng, University College London awarded by The Royal Society with Clifford Paterson Medal and Lecture 2024 for seminal research in engineering science of making small structures from soft matter in novel scalable ways, creating new frontiers in functional applications causing major advances in manufacturing and healthcare.

The Clifford Paterson Medal and Lecture is given for outstanding contributions in the field of engineering. The lectureship was originally endowed by The General Electric Company in memory of Clifford Paterson FRS, who founded the GEC Research Laboratories in 1919. Originally the lectures were given on electrical science and technology but this was later broadened to any aspect of engineering. The first lecture was given in 1975. The medal is of bronze, is awarded biennially and is accompanied by a gift of £2,000.

Professor Rodrigo Martins honoured with the degree of Honorary Professor

Rodrigo Martins, President of EurASc, full professor and researcher at the Department of Materials Science at NOVA FCT, was recently honoured with the degree of Honorary Professor by Wuhan Technical University (China) and the Hefei Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

These two institutions are among the most prestigious in China. The Institute of Materials at Wuham University is the best in the field of materials among the 4500 institutes in the country and the fifth best institute in China. The Hefei Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is considered the second best in all of China in the field of Sciences.

This distinction recognises the academic and research merit of the professor, who has published more than 700 papers during his career and has won more than 14 international and national awards and distinctions for his work over the past 10 years.

In addition to being a professor at NOVA FCT, Rodrigo Martins is Director of the Centre of Excellence in Microelectronics and Optoelectronic Processes of the Institute for the Development of New Technologies (CEMOP/UNINOVA) and President of the European Academy of Sciences (EurASc) and past President of the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS).
