Emerging Pharmaceutical Strategies against Infectious Diseases
This special issue belongs to the section “Drug Targeting and Design“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Infectious diseases persist as a global health challenge, constantly presenting new hurdles for effective treatment. This Special Issue seeks to showcase pioneering research on drug delivery systems, targeted therapies, and novel formulations combating diverse infectious agents.
We welcome contributions that underscore the integration of cutting-edge technologies such as nanomedicine, immunotherapy, and personalized drug design to tackle the evolving complexities of infectious diseases. Researchers are encouraged to offer insights into the challenges and prospects of developing effective antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal agents. Join us in shaping the trajectory of pharmaceutical interventions in the battle against infectious diseases. Submit your contributions to this Special Issue and play a pivotal role in advancing this critical field.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
