During the last decade, interest in the chemistry of biological systems,
as well as in molecular chemical engineering, has grown considerably.
Many fields in modern chemistry are contributing to a better
understanding of elementary mechanisms of various biological processes
and this has resulted in the development of new classes of organic and
organometallic compounds with specific and high biological activity.
Such a multidisciplinary approach creates opportunities for an exchange
of ideas and the need to create a common language. This volume contains
a collection of papers, written by leading scientists which collectively
provide a rich overview of current research activities relating to the
chemistry of biological systems. These papers emphasize the
interdisciplinary nature of this research.
For researchers in academia and industry whose work involves the
chemistry and properties of biomolecular systems.
