Preface
The Japanese Society of Biorheology was established in 1977 by scientists and experts in a wide variety of fields who were interested in deformation and flow in biological systems and their components, with Syoten Oka, a pioneer in this field, being the first president. Since then, the Society has been offering researchers the opportunity to have common information and recognition in this interesting interdisciplinary field that relates life science, clinical medicine, medical engineering, food science, physics, chemistry, and other fields. It is evident that recent developments in biorheology have not only expanded the range of fields that it covers but also deepened each field by integrating new methods, technologies, and theories. Thus, to provide current leading information, the Society intends to publish a series of books on recent topics in biorheology. This book, the first one of the series, deals with nano/micro science and technology in biorheology. Measurement techniques on the nano- and microscale developed over the past few decades are now indispensable for analyzing complex phenomena in biological systems from the aspect of biorheology, because the main targets of biorheology are generally inhomogeneous at these scale
