Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery

Nanotechnology has finally and firmly entered the realm of drug delivery. Performances of intelligent drug delivery systems are continuously improved with the purpose to maximize therapeutic activity and to minimize undesirable side-effects. The primary goals for research of Nano-biotechnologies in drug delivery include:

More specific drug targeting and delivery,

Reduction in toxicity while maintaining therapeutic effects,

Greater safety and biocompatibility, and

Faster development of new safe medicines

Pharmaceutical conferences offer presentations by researchers from several disciplines, from the life sciences to engineering, who will address a range of topics including peptide and protein delivery, gene delivery, cell delivery, vaccines, transdermal, pulmonary delivery, new materials, and other subjects, from varied disciplines while focusing on the central theme of drug delivery.
