A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Dr. Syed Tofail, PhD, MSc Eng., BSc Eng., is a Senior Research Fellow with the Materials and Surface Science Institute, University of Limerick, Ireland. He has about 10 years experience in the development and characterisation of nano- and biomaterials. His major research accomplishment is establishing the correct crystal symmetry of hydroxyapatite, a leading synthetic biomaterial. This led him to the discovery of piezoelectricity in synthetic hydroxyapatite. Dr. Tofail is skilled in conducting fundamental research in the field of materials and surface science with the aim of developing medical devices with new functionality. For this, he works closely with relevant industrial players. Dr. Tofail is currently coordinating a European Commission Framework 7 project funded under the Nanotechnology, Materials and Processing (NMP) programme. One of the core objectives of this project is to develop MRSA-resistant medical textiles. In addition, the project will also develop implantable devices for cardiovascular, orthopaedic and urinary applications.
