<b>DIATOM MICROSCOPY</b> <p><b>The main goal of the book is to demonstrate the wide variety of microscopy methods being used to investigate natural and altered diatom structures.</b> <p>This book on<i> Diatom Microscopy</i> gives an introduction to the wide panoply of microscopy methods being used to investigate diatom structure and biology, marking considerable advances in recent technology including optical, fluorescence, confocal and electron microscopy, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and spectroscopy as applied to diatoms. Each chapter includes a tutorial on a microscopy technique and reviews its applications in diatom nanotechnology and diatom research. The number of diatomists, diatom research, and their publications are increasing rapidly. Although many books have dealt with various aspects of diatom biotechnology, nanotechnology, and morphology, to our knowledge, no volume exists that summarizes advanced microscopic approaches to diatoms. <p><b>Audience</B><p> <p>The intended audience is academic and industry researchers as well as graduate students working on diatoms and diatom nanotechnology, including biosensors, biomedical engineering, solar panels, batteries, drug delivery, insect control, and biofuels.

<p><b>Nirmal Mazumder</b> obtained his PhD degree in 2013 from National Yang-Ming University, Taiwan. He has two years of post-doctoral research experience. In 2016, he joined the Department of Biophysics, Manipal School of Life Sciences, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal, India as an assistant professor. His research interests relate to the development of Stokes-Mueller-based light microscopy for tissue characterization and deep learning. He also investigates the photonics properties of diatoms as well as frustules for bio-photonics applications. He has published several peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters.</p> <p><b>Richard Gordon’s</b> involvement with diatoms goes back to 1970 with his capillarity model for their gliding motility, published in the <i>Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America.</i> He later worked on a diffusion-limited aggregation model for diatom morphogenesis, which led to the first paper ever published on diatom nanotechnology in 1988. He organized the first workshop on diatom nanotech in 2003.
