Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Nanobiotechnology focuses on the development and application of nanotechnological approaches for biological and medical purposes. Recent articles highlight the use of nanoparticles and nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery, therapeutic interventions in cancer and inflammatory diseases, and the modulation of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. Research also explores the mechanisms of nanomedicines, including their interaction with the tumor microenvironment, immune system modulation, and antioxidant properties.
