3C: Drug Delivery SIG 1: Smart Biomaterials for Therapy, Regeneration, and Sensing
Time: 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM
Description
This session will survey the diverse range of contemporary drug delivery systems and innovations. Drug delivering biomaterials can include nanoparticles, hydrogels, nanofibers, cell and virus-derived particles, or bioconjugates. Payloads can include DNA, RNA, antibodies, recombinant proteins, or small molecules. Disease applications can range from neurodegeneration to autoimmune disease, trauma, infection, or cancer. Work at all scales, from basic formulation science through therapeutic application in disease models is welcome. Studies that critically evaluate the impact of injection route on treatment efficacy and/or use novel imaging modalities to evaluate drug delivery performance are especially encouraged.
