Preface
Three-dimensional (3D)-printed systems and nanosystems are highly progressive and evolving technologies that are rapidly etching their position in the realm of drug delivery and tissue engineering.

Three-dimensional printing is rapidly forging its niche as an advanced and transformative build technology holding significant application in pharmaceutical sciences for creating bioinspired solid 3D devices from a digital model with customizable, complex shapes, surfaces, and architectures, employing diverse materials. The noteworthy applications of 3D printing in pharmaceutical research include the design of personalized 3D-printed oral tablets, drug delivery devices, and tissue engineering scaffolds.

Nanostructures boasting diverse components, functionalities, and synergy are the current focus of the biomedical arena. Biomaterials such as nanostructured materials/ nanomaterials, which are materials possessing a nano/microstructure scale length in the order ofw1e1000 nm, have been lauded as a novel frontier for tissue engineering in diverse soft and hard tissues, with increased publications emanating in the last couple of decades in this regard.

The convergence of biofabrication with nanotechnology is a largely unexplored but a growing focus for constructing directional customizable biomaterial arrangements for promoting tissue regeneration, combined with the potential for controlled bioactive delivery. The impetus for this nanoprogression in 3D printing lies with the fact that nanostructures, including nanoparticles, nanotubes, and nanofibers smaller than 500 nm, are poised to simulate native biological systems, thus enabling tissue regeneration via cell growth. Biopolymer matrix and nanostructure interactions emanate in these nanostructured materials possessing enhanced functionality and mechanical properties.

This book will exemplify the intricacies of nanostructures and 3D-printed systems in terms of their design as drug delivery or tissue engineering devices, their evaluation, and diverse applications.

The target audience of this book is academics, specifically pharmaceutical scientists, biomedical engineers, and material scientists focused on the design of drug delivery systems, medical devices, and tissue scaffolds from biomaterials, and professionals, including clinicians having an interest in the areas of advanced drug delivery systems for enhanced patient treatment and tissue engineering for both soft and hard tissue repair and regeneration.

A key goal of this book is to instill a realization of the progression in the fields of drug delivery and tissue engineering to create systems which are intelligent, biomimetic, and customized to the patient. Nanotechnology and 3D printing are two realms of technological advancement that are propelling these fields forward to greater levels of advancement for the enhanced treatment of diseases and tissue injury.

The book is structured in terms of these two technological realms, 3D printing and nanotechnology, and comprises 10 chapters written by leading scientific experts in these respective fields. The first six chapters are focused on 3D printing, with the first chapter introducing us to bioinks for printing of extracellular matrices, followed by chapters on 3D printing of oral dosage forms and scaffolds for tissue engineering.

We then delve into the potential of inorganic additives for enhancing the mechanical properties of 3D-printed constructs and subsequently focus on specialized bioinks in the form of cellulosic materials. To sum up this section, we investigate the advancing realm of 4D printing as the intelligent extension of 3D printing. The following four chapters focus on distinct areas of nanotechnological advancement within the pharmaceutical nanotechnological arena in terms of wound and ocular tissue regeneration, and specialized therapies targeted at the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative disorders.

We thank and acknowledge the publishers, our contributing authors, and our research team at the Wits Advanced Drug Delivery Platform Research Unit, University of the Witwatersrand, for making this book possible. A special gratitude goes to John Leonard, Simon Holt, Emily Thomson, and the other staff at Elsevier for bringing this project to fruition, and we trust it will be an important contribution to the fields of pharmaceutical nanotechnology and 3D printing.
