Cephalopods usually have large and mobile eyes with which they constantly scan their environment. The eyes of cephalopods are single-chamber eyes which show resemblance to vertebrate eyes. However there are marked differences such as the cephalopod eye having an everted retina instead of an inverted retina found in vertebrates. Their visual system allows the cephalopods, depending on species, to discriminate objects on the basis of their shapes or sizes, images from mirror images or to learn from the observation of others. The cephalopod visual system is also polarization sensitive and controls camouflage, an extraordinary ability almost exclusive to all cephalopods; they are capable of rapidly adapting their body coloration as well as altering their body shape to any background, in almost any condition and even during self-motion. Visual scene analysis ultimately leads to motor outputs that cause an appropriate change in skin coloration or texture by acting directly on chromatophores or papillae in the skin. Mirroring these numerous functions of the visual system, large parts of the cephalopod brain are devoted to the processing of visual information. This research topic focuses on current advances in the knowledge of cephalopod vision. It is designed to facilitate merging questions, approaches and data available through the work of different researchers working on different aspects of cephalopod vision. Thus the research topic creates mutual awareness, and facilitates the growth of a field of research with a long tradition - cephalopod vision, visual perception and cognition as well as the mechanisms of camouflage. This research topic emerged from a workshop on “Vision in cephalopods” as part of the COST Action FA1301.

This book highlights novel nano-engineering advances that enable enhanced bone formation at the implant/biomaterial and bone tissue interface, towards bone tissue engineering applications. Spanning a variety of biomaterial categories, from nanofibrous scaffolds (natural and synthetic) to the nanoscale modification of metallic implants, novel bioactive and therapeutic modifications have made it possible to enhance new bone formation, which could be particularly useful for the management of compromised sites.
Technology: general issues --- History of engineering & technology --- human tooth powder --- bioceramics --- biocompatibility --- bone regeneration --- vascularization --- nano-composite --- microstructure --- nanoindentation --- bone implants --- powder metallurgy --- calcium orthophosphates --- nano-hydroxyapatite --- eggshell --- cuttlefish bone --- mussel shell --- amorphous calcium carbonate --- hydrogel --- tissue engineering --- biphasic calcium phosphate nanoparticle (BCP-NP) --- biodegradable --- gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) --- visible light --- inorganic nanomaterials --- nano hydroxyapatites --- nano silica --- metallic nanomaterials --- magnesium and its alloys --- hydroxyapatite --- surface modifications --- titanium implants --- corrosion analysis --- bioactivity --- biomaterial --- bone substitute --- apatite --- microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis --- microgeometry --- mechanobiology --- global DNA methylation --- osteoblast mechanosensing --- human tooth powder --- bioceramics --- biocompatibility --- bone regeneration --- vascularization --- nano-composite --- microstructure --- nanoindentation --- bone implants --- powder metallurgy --- calcium orthophosphates --- nano-hydroxyapatite --- eggshell --- cuttlefish bone --- mussel shell --- amorphous calcium carbonate --- hydrogel --- tissue engineering --- biphasic calcium phosphate nanoparticle (BCP-NP) --- biodegradable --- gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) --- visible light --- inorganic nanomaterials --- nano hydroxyapatites --- nano silica --- metallic nanomaterials --- magnesium and its alloys --- hydroxyapatite --- surface modifications --- titanium implants --- corrosion analysis --- bioactivity --- biomaterial --- bone substitute --- apatite --- microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis --- microgeometry --- mechanobiology --- global DNA methylation --- osteoblast mechanosensing
