632 Biomaterials for Drug Delivery

Thursday, November 12, 2015: 8:30 AM - 11:00 AM
251A (Salt Palace Convention Center)

Description:
This session will cover novel design principles that govern biomaterial selection for drug and applications with particular focus on how biomaterial properties (e.g. mechanical properties, chemical composition, degradation kinetics, micro/nano-structure, etc.) influence the delivery efficiency. Possible topics include, but are not limited to stimuli-sensitive or targeted delivery, enhancement of delivery efficiency via specific biomaterial properties and the influence of biomaterial properties on intracellular trafficking and/or transport of drugs.
