OBJECTIVES |
| Ceramics materials are linked to the ancient human
civilization when the early men could make earthen
pots from clay. Starting from that humble beginning,
ceramic materials have become one of the most
fascinating materials in the world with its application
areas reaching in space. During the last four decades,
ceramic materials and composites have also
caused a major revolution in the medical science
by improving the quality of human life through the
use of artificial bone, eye, dental fixtures etc. Tailor
made synthetic ceramic parts not only serve as an
additional support but also as an internal prosthetics,
which when integrated into the human system, fully
perform the function of the skeletal materials they
replace. These special classes of tailor made bio
ceramic materials perform specific biological / functional
/ chemical activities in living systems. Treatment
procedures through reconstructive surgery
have resulted in marked improvement in the quality
of life of a rehabilitated person. |
 |
| Depending on the implant-host response the bio
ceramic materials can be bioinert, bioactive or bioresorbable
Till date, the focused research and development
on bioceramics is being carried out only in a
limited number of research laboratories and academic
institutions and less so at other places. |
|
| The present situation thus calls for close and collaborative
interactions, dissemination of knowledge,
deliberations and exchange of ideas on the different
mon platform for a fruitful discussion aspects of bioceramic, research, the medical and the ethical
aspects of this material's application etc. The present conference
thus aims to provide a common platform for a fruitful
discussion and sharing of ideas among various groups of
researchers, and medical professionals actively involved in
the research, development and application of different bio
ceramic materials. |

| ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT |
| Although started in 1994, within this short time the Department
of Ceramic Engineering has established it self as one of
the centres of excellence for both undergraduate and postgraduate
teaching in Ceramic Engineering as well as for research
programmes in the field of traditional and advanced
ceramics. The faculty members are young, dynamic and they
are well qualified and trained for carrying out active research
in the field of bio-materials, advanced refractories, nano science
and technology, electronic materials, etc. The department
has already established its research capability in different
areas and awarded with various prestigious projects from
DST, CSIR, UGC, MOEF, etc. It has also linkages and active
collaboration with different industries in India. The students as well as research scholars of the department also avail
the opportunity through collaborative projects, short
term visits to the industries etc. |
