Summary:

Electroporation is a widespread technique adopted to increase the uptake of molecules by biological targets. This approach is gaining momentum due to its low cost and feasibility both in basic and in applied science. Notwithstanding the raise in interest in this method at scientific and clinical level, there are very few books completely dedicated to this argument. The principal purpose of this book is a comprehensive and up to date overview on electroporation in mathematics modelling, bioengineering, molecular biology, plant biology, pathology, and, veterinary and human oncology.
