Cover: Glow discharges can modify surface chemistry and morphology of materials, and can be applied directly on living tissues and cells, in order to orient their biological response. Functional biomimetic surfaces, sterilization and decontamination, patterning/structuring procedures, non fouling coatings and other features can be delivered today by this technology in an increasing number of applications in Biology and Medicine.
