Session: Session 1: Drug, Protein and Gene Delivery Systems (SBE’s 6th International Conference on Bioengineering and Nanotechnology)

Description:

This session supports the research and development of new and improved technologies for the controlled and targeted release of therapeutic agents. Areas of emphasis include: the development of new delivery vehicles such as nanoparticles and micellar systems; energy-assisted delivery using ultrasound, electroporation, etc.; and the integration of biosensing with controlled dosage delivery using BioMEMS and other emerging technologies.
