Beschreibung

Core-Shell Nanostructures for Drug Delivery and Theranostics: Challenges, Strategies and Prospects for Novel Carrier Systems contains valuable chapters that deal with the fundamentals of nanotechnology for drug delivery, recent developments and research in core-shell nanoparticles for drug-delivery and theranostic applications, and the potential and applications of core-shell nanofiber. This book is a highly valuable resource for scientists interested in the design and development of innovative drug delivery systems, researchers and graduate/postdoctoral students engaged in biomaterials for drug delivery, and R&D managers in the biomaterials and pharmaceutical industry.

Autor

Maria has authored more than 60 papers on international, peer-reviewed scientific journals and 3 book chapters.She is the inventor of 7 patents or patent applications. She has more than 100 contributions in national and international conferences in the fields of polymeric materials and electrospinning technology.
Maria coordinates the interdisciplinary Research Group on Electrospinning of the University of Bologna (RGE-UNIBO, that she founded in 2006) whose activities are mostly focused on extending basic current knowledge for better control and optimization of the electrospinning process and fabricating innovative engineered nanofiber assemblies from selected polymers. She also leads the Biomaterials Laboratory activities of the Health Sciences and Technologies - Interdepartmental Center for Industrial Research (HST-ICIR) at the University of Bologna. Technology transfer is also performed, and the electrospinning technology developed in the group are now the focus of a start-

up company, where Maria is member of the Scientific Advisory Board.
