This book is essential reading for those interested in understanding current <br />
trends of research in the area of biomechanics at micro- and nanoscale levels. <br />
It details the research carried out to date in this field by fourteen prominent <br />
researchers as part of a four-year government supported project which commenced <br />
in 2003. It consists of four chapters entitled Cell Mechanics, Cell Response to <br />
Mechanical Stimulation, Tissue Engineering and Computational Biomechanics. <br />
<br />
