Notes:
Much research effort has been committed to the development of bioceramics thatpromote bone tissue regeneration and this is still one of the greatest challenges for the scientificcommunity. In this sense, silica-based ordered mesoporous materials constitute a new generation ofbioceramics that combine the intrinsic properties of bioceramics, such as bioactive behavior,together with the capability to host and controlled release biologically active molecules thatpromote new bone formation, i.e. drug delivery systems. In this chapter, the recent advances aimedat tailoring ordered mesoporous materials for biomedical applications will be tackled and criticallydiscussed
