The present book discusses topics related to research and development of materials and devices at nanoscale size and their respective application in medicine and biomedicine.The individual chapters give a detailed state of the art overview to the distinct topic. Apparently disconnected fields - life sciences, biomedicine, chemistry, physics, medicine and engineering - will be bridged with a highly interdisciplinary view onto each subject.
