Computational Approaches in Biomedical Nano-Engineering

This book comprehensively and systematically treats modern understanding of the Nano-Bio-Technology and its therapeutic applications. The contents range from the nanomedicine, imaging, targeted therapeutic applications, experimental results along with modelling approaches. It will provide the readers with fundamentals on computational and modelling aspects of advanced nano-materials and nano-technology specifically in the field of biomedicine, and also provide the readers with inspirations for new development of diagnostic imaging and targeted therapeutic applications.

Ayesha Sohail obtained her PhD from Department of Chemical Enginerring and Mathematical, Sheffield UK. She is an expert on nonlinear science, nanobiotechnolgoy and numerical analysis. She has successfully developed and implemented numerical tools to solve systems governing the nano-technology problems. ZhiWu Li received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Mechanical Engineering, Automatic Control, and Manufacturing Engineering, respectively, all from Xidian University, Xi'an, China, in 1989, 1992, and 1995, respectively. He joined Xidian University in 1992. Over the past decade, he was a Visiting Professor at the University of Toronto, Technion (Israel Institute of Technology), Martin-Luther University, Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (Cnam), Meliksah Universitesi, King Saudi University, and the University of Cagliari. His current research interest includes Petri net theory and application, supervisory control of discrete event systems, workflow modeling and analysis, system reconfiguration, game theory, and data and process mining. He is a member of Discrete Event Systems Technical Committee of the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society, and a member of IFAC Technical Committee on Discrete Event and Hybrid Systems from 2011 to 2014. He serves(d) as the Associate Editor IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering (2008-2013), IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Part A (2010-2012), IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics: Systems (2012-2016), and Information Sciences (2014-). Professor Li is a recipient of an Alexander von Humboldt Research Grant, Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Germany, and Research in Paris, France and he is also a Fellow of IEEE.
