Printed on acid-free paper Humana Press is a brand of Springer Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Preface In this book we survey classical and cutting-edge methods for studying wound healing and regeneration. Expert scientists, bioengineers, and physicians explain useful technologies, models, techniques, and critical new areas and approaches to clinical and commercial trans- lation of research. We build on the excellent foundation provided by the 2003 publication on wound healing in the Methods in Molecular Medicine series edited by Drs. Luisa DePietro and Aime Burns. In our volume, cellular and molecular methods, genetic approaches, sur- gical techniques, clinical advances, drug discovery and delivery modalities, animal and humanized models, and new applications in the treatment of pathological wounds are cov- ered in a variety of organs and tissues. The 33 chapters are divided among sections on tissue engineering and stem cell-based approaches to wound healing, skin, corneal, and cardiovas- cular models of injury repair, nonmammalian models, and pertinent aspects of commercial- ization and intellectual property. Most chapters contain step-by-step methodological descriptions, a detailed list of materials, and an exclusive collection of personal tips or “Notes” that the authors feel critical to success in their technique. Instructive diagrams and informative color photographs also accompany the chapters. Experienced professionals in the wound healing commercial space also provide fresh insight on biotechnology startups, intellectual property, and the patent process. This compendium should enable students, trainees, established basic and clinical researchers, biomedical engineers, and entrepreneurs to effi ciently apply the trove of knowledge that has been compiled here by some of the foremost experts in wound healing today. In this way, we intend that the reader might dis- cover and translate new knowledge in the fi eld of wound repair and regeneration. Tereance A.
