Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue highlights the development and use of nanocarriers for targeted therapies in personalised medicine. Innovative and precision-based strategies for cancer treatment, involving customised nanovectors, play a crucial role in addressing what is often referred to as the ‘disease of the century’. In this scenario, personalised nanomedicine is an emerging and inherently interdisciplinary field, promoting the development of next-generation nano-tools for targeted therapy and diagnosis, such as nanoparticles, nanocapsules, and nanomicelles. The publication of original research articles and reviews in this Special Issue will contribute to advancing scientific knowledge in personalised nanomedicine and support the clinical translation of nanocarrier-based approaches in oncology.
