4 Preface Nanotechnology has tremendous potential in disease diagnosis, imaging, monitoring, and therapy. The United States National Institutes of Health has defined nanomedicine as a molecular scale intervention for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The subject of nanomedicine is already considered in thousands of original articles and dozens of reviews and monographs. Still, the knowledge in this area is being accumulated so fast that it justifies the appearance of new publication or even book series. The main objective of the Series on Biomedical Nanotechnology developed with Pan Stanford Publishing is to foster greater understanding of this multidisciplinary field that ranges from basic and applied sciences and engineering to clinical practice. Each of the volumes in the series will be covering a major area of nanotechnology application in biology and medicine and will be specifically written with emphasis on challenges and opportunities that lie at the interfaces of various fields and the potential to solve important biomedical problems. The series opens with a two-part volume on materials for nanomedicine. In our opinion, this is a right choice since before going into basics and applications, we have to clearly understand what current material science can offer for nanofabrication in different areas of medicine including the application of nanocarriers for delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents. In Part 1, organic nano-structures with potential for disease diagnosis and therapy are being illustrated. Specific examples include polymeric nano-delivery systems including conjugates, nanoparticles, nano-assemblies, micelles, dendrimers, and combinatorial synthesis of novel polymeric materials, and lipid-based nanosystems, such as liposomes, solid-lipid nanoparticles, liquid crystalline lipidic nanostructures, nano-ampiphilies, nano-emulsions, and nano-crystals. Part 2 focuses on inorganic nano-structures in biology and medicine, including gold nano-rods and nanoshells, metal oxide nano-porous templates, carbon nanotubes, calcium phosphate, silica nanostructures, and other inorganic

5 vi Preface nanoparticles for drug and gene delivery and for tissue engineering/regenerative medicine. All individual chapters are written by leading world experts in corresponding fields and the editors are extremely grateful to all of the contributors for providing the chapters with state-of-thescience in this field. Certainly even a two-part volume will not be able to cover completely all the materials currently being developed and under development for use in nanomedicine, but we believe this book will provide a good representation of the field and covers the major developments. We hope it will serve to foster and facilitate collaborations amongst basic and applied scientists and engineers with clinical researchers and practitioners to further nanomedicine from the bench to the bedside. We will be grateful to our readers for their comments, which will help to improve future volumes in the Biomedical Nanotechnology series. Authors Vladimir Torchilin, Mansoor Amiji Boston
