Reshaping the future of nanopharmaceuticals: ad iudicium

ACS Nano. 2011 Nov 22;5(11):8454-8. doi: 10.1021/nn2038252. Epub 2011 Oct 12.

Abstract

We present views on the future development of biologics-based nanopharmaceuticals from a "high risk-high gain" perspective and within the context of personalized therapies. Integrated scientific, commercial, and societal aspects are addressed, and provocative combined realistic biotech, computational, and nanotech approaches for tailor-made engineering of nanopharmaceuticals are discussed.
