    This complete, yet concise, guide introduces you to the rapidly developing field of high throughput screening of biomaterials: materiomics. Bringing together the key concepts and methodologies used to determine biomaterial properties, you will understand the adaptation and application of materomics in areas such as rapid prototyping, lithography and combinatorial chemistry. Each chapter is written by internationally renowned experts, and includes tutorial paragraphs on topics such as biomaterial-banking, imaging, assay development, translational aspects, and informatics. Case studies of state-of-the-art experiments provide illustrative examples, whilst lists of key publications allow you to easily read up on the most relevant background material. Whether you are a professional scientist in industry, a student or a researcher, this book is not to be missed if you are interested in the latest developments in biomaterials research.

    • A quick and focused introduction brings you up to speed on the diverse technologies associated with high throughput screening of biomaterials
    • Case studies describe state-of-the-art experiments and provide valuable illustrative examples
    • Recommended reading points you towards the area's most influential texts

    Reviews & endorsements

    'This book is a rich collection of papers that shine a light on the promising approach of materiomics. It would be a valuable guide to assist students and established researchers alike.' Alexander Waller, The Biologist
