Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the development and application of drug delivery systems across various therapeutic areas, including oncology, respiratory diseases, neurological disorders, and ophthalmology. It examines novel delivery platforms such as nanoparticles, bioconjugates, and 3D-printed devices, as well as advanced administration routes like transdermal, intranasal, and inhaled therapies. The scope also encompasses strategies to overcome biological barriers like the blood-brain barrier and tumor microenvironment, and the integration of technologies like artificial intelligence and Quality by Design principles in drug development.
