Previous Mechanisms and Barriers in Nanomedicine Workshop

There is a growing sentiment in the field that in order to increase the availability of nanodrugs for patients, the biological, pathophysiological, immunological and manufacturing/regulatory barriers to effective translation need to be addressed.

The goals of the two-day Mechanisms and Barriers in Nanomedicine workshop are to:

  • provide an educational forum on the barriers to nanoparticle translation;
  • provide a paradigm shift to overcome these problems; and
  • allow for open discussion among faculty, postdocs and graduate students, to trigger new ideas and concepts.
