Biography
Šeila Selimović is currently an AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellow in Washington, District of Columbia, USA, working on science diplomacy issues relating to energy security and scientific cooperation. Previously, she was a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard Medical School and Brigham & Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. An author of over 60 research articles, book chapters, and editorials, she earned her Ph.D and M.Sc from Brandeis University, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA, where she was a recipient of a two-year National Science Foundation traineeship (IGERT), and her BA from Wellesley College, Massachusetts, USA.
"This book is a good reference for researchers interested in realizing bio-applications based on micro- and nanostructures, where their interface with liquids and biomolecules is the key point. The most important ‘players’ of micro- and nano-bioengineering are considered, from DNA to proteins and cells. The work is a good merger of basic concepts and real examples of applications."
