A new monograph entitled ‘Nanotechnology in Therapeutics. Basics and Trends’, published by Wiley in September 2024. This monograph presents the framework for the development and evaluation of nanosystems that can deliver therapeutic products, genetic material and innovative medicines to biological targets and provide advantages in biomedical applications.
This book is a useful resource for chemists, pharmacists, physicians, regulatory scientists and biomedical engineers in industry, as well as for students and professionals in the health sector.
The monograph is dedicated to the memory of Professor Demetrios Papahadjopoulos (University of California at San Francisco, USA) who was one of the pioneers in nanotherapeutics.
Also check out the recently published work :‘Nanosimilars: a scientific or a regulatory debate ?’ (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1208/s12248-024-00942-6).
