Emerging Drug Delivery and
Biomedical Engineering Technologies:
Transforming Therapy
This book details the advances in drug discovery, manufacturing, and delivery of molecules, and the present need for
emerging technologies. Throughout the text, emerging technologies are described, including methods such as additive
manufacturing h ot- melt extrusion, microfluidics, which have the potential to produce drug delivery systems that were not
possible a few years ago, but also biosensors and engineering approaches for diagnosis. This book is of great use to both
entry- level and experienced researchers in the field of emerging technologies for drug delivery and biomedical engineering
applciations.
Features:
• Describes technologies that are significantly enhancing the delivery of drugs and monitoring patients.
• Presents new data on mobile and wearable p oint- of- care testing systems.
• Features hot topics such as bioprinting, cold plasma, microfluidics and microneedles.
• Will appeal to experienced researchers and those considering entering the field of emerging technologies.

The Drugs and Pharmaceutical Sciences series is designed to enable the pharmaceutical scientist to stay abreast of the
changing trends, advances and innovations associated with therapeutic drugs and that area of expertise and interest that
has come to be known as the pharmaceutical sciences. The body of knowledge that those working in the pharmaceuti-
cal environment have to work with, and master, has been, and continues, to expand at a rapid pace as new scientific
approaches, technologies, instrumentations, clinical advances, economic factors and social needs arise and influence the
discovery, development, manufacture, commercialization and clinical use of new agents and devices.
