Abstract：

Bioceramics and their applications in medicine have attracted worldwide attentions and become an important development. Bioceramic studies include from bone-application (especially in dentistry and orthopedics) to and furthermore combining with different materials (functional ceramic, metal and polymer). So far, Engineering bio-composite have demonstrated various biomedical applications including bioceramics, biomineralization and biocomposites in regenerative medicine, and surface coating and tissue. The versatility and flexibility of these biocomposites with different nanostructures also allow the development of drug delivery vehicles for better modulating therapeutic and reduce side effects. Furthermore, the drug release profile can be controlled by modifying the nanostructures using different functional ceramic materials for maximizing therapeutic effect. In this talk, we reported drug-nanocarrier composed of functional ceramics and polymers that can solve these problems simultaneously. Further development of this technology should open exciting opportunities in treating tough diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, neurological disorders, and infectious diseases.
