About Program:

The program on Green Nanoparticles: Application to Drug Delivery explores the intersection of nanotechnology and environmental science to innovate safer, more effective drug delivery mechanisms. By utilizing materials derived from natural sources or designed to be inherently biodegradable and non-toxic, the program aims to develop nanoparticle systems that can deliver drugs directly to targeted cells or tissues with minimal environmental footprint. This approach not only enhances the efficacy of treatments by improving the bioavailability and controlled release of pharmaceuticals but also addresses the growing concerns over the accumulation of non-degradable nanoparticles in the environment.

Furthermore, the program seeks to foster a multidisciplinary collaboration among researchers, clinicians, and environmental scientists to advance the field of nanomedicine while adhering to principles of green chemistry. Through rigorous research, innovation, and stringent testing, the initiative aims to create scalable drug delivery solutions that meet global health needs and regulatory standards. The ultimate goal is to pave the way for new generations of drug delivery systems that are as gentle on the environment as they are effective in treating diseases, thereby setting new benchmarks for sustainability in pharmaceutical development.

Aim:

The aim of the program focused on “Green Nanoparticles: Application to Drug Delivery” is to develop and promote the use of environmentally friendly nanoparticles in the field of medicine, specifically for enhancing drug delivery systems. This initiative seeks to harness the latest advancements in green chemistry and nanotechnology to create biodegradable, non-toxic nanoparticles that can efficiently target and deliver therapeutic agents to specific sites within the body. By combining the principles of sustainability with cutting-edge medical technology, the program endeavors to improve patient outcomes, reduce side effects, and minimize the ecological impact of pharmaceuticals, ultimately leading to more sustainable and effective healthcare solutions.
