This first book to specifically focus on applications of conjugated polymers in the fields of biology and biomedicine covers materials science, physical principles, and nanotechnology.
The editor and authors, all pioneers and experts with extensive research experience in the field, firstly introduce the synthesis and optical properties of various conjugated polymers, highlighting how to make organic soluble polymers compatible with the aqueous environment. This is followed by the application of these materials in optical sensing and imaging as well as the emerging applications in image-guided therapy and in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
The result is a consolidated overview for polymer chemists, materials scientists, biochemists, biotechnologists, and bioengineers.

Dr. Bin Liu is the Provost's Chair Professor and Head of Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, National University of Singapore (NUS), Singapore. She received her PhD degree from NUS and started her independent academic career after a postdoctoral training at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA. She has authored and co-authored over 350 scientific publications. Named among the World's Most Influential Minds and the Top 1% Highly Cited Researchers in Materials Science by Thomson Reuters and Clarivate Analytics from 2014 to 2017, Dr. Liu specializes in bringing organic soluble materials into aqueous media, with a focus on the exploration of their unique applications in biomedical research, environmental monitoring and electronic devices. Dr. Liu is the recipient of multiple prestigious awards, including the National Science and Technology Young Scientist Award, L'Oreal Women in Science National Fellowship, Asia Rising Star, Singapore National Institute of Chemistry-BASF Materials Award, Singapore National Research Foundation lnvestigatorship, Elsevier Materials in Society Lectureship, NUS Provost's Chair Professorship and the President's Technology Award. She was also recently elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, Fellow of Singapore Academy of Engineering and Asia-Pacific Academy of Materials, in addition to multiple invitations to serve on the editorial boards of 15 international refereed journals. Besides her academic endeavors, Dr. Liu is highly active in technopreneurship. She holds 28 patents, of which 15 have been licensed to companies across the US, UK and Asia, and co-founded a start-up company Luminicell to commercialize her bioprobe technology based on fluorogens with aggregation-induced emission feature.
