Aim

NANOmedX: Future of Drug Delivery trains participants to understand and design next-generation drug delivery systems using nanomedicine principles—from material selection and formulation to targeting strategies, characterization, and translational thinking. You will learn how nano-enabled carriers improve stability, biodistribution, controlled release, and therapeutic index, while also understanding safety, manufacturing, and regulatory fundamentals.

Program Objectives

  • Understand Modern Drug Delivery: Why conventional delivery fails and how nanocarriers solve key limitations.
  • Learn Nanocarrier Platforms: Liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, micelles, dendrimers, SLNs/NLCs, and inorganic systems.
  • Targeting & Release Design: Passive vs active targeting, stimuli-responsive release, and controlled delivery strategies.
  • Formulation Know-How: Encapsulation, loading, stability, surface functionalization, and scale-up considerations.
  • Characterization Skills: Size, charge, morphology, release kinetics, and basic in vitro performance testing.
  • Safety & Translation: Toxicity basics, immunogenicity, biodistribution, quality-by-design, and regulatory overview.
