The world of targeted drug delivery (TDD) represents an incredible leap forward in how we treat and manage diseases . It’s a frontier where science converges with hope, precision, and, in many ways, a reimagining of healthcare itself. As we move closer to realizing a future where therapies can target specific cells or tis-sues with minimal side effects, the excitement is tempered by a growing recogni-tion of the technical, ethical, and societal challenges that come with this revolu-tionary shift in medical practice. In this drawing from the insights of re-searchers and thinkers who are deeply engaged in navigating this transformative field. Together, the following chapters, illustrate how the evolving landscape of TDD holds both immense promise and significant complexity.
Phytoconstituents are a valuable source of new lead compounds due to their structural variety. The accelerated rate of human ageing brought about by the 21st century's longer life expectancy seems to be one of the major problems facing varied cultures worldwide. Ageing and the onset of chronic diseases appear to be significantly influenced by the type of food consumption pattern that people follow throughout their lives. There is strong evidence that Mediterranean diets are linked to a lower risk of brain disorders. A greater proportion of rural communities in the Mediterranean basin eat a diet high in plant-based foods daily. Stressors like reactive oxygen and reactive nitrogen species have...
This evidence-packed guide explores the growing importance of new technologies and situated learning in the vanguard of medical and health sciences education, backed by real-world clinical applications. Its dual emphasis on problem-based learning (PBL) and applied learning is reflected in the range of author perspectives, from understanding how technologies engage learners to implications for program design. Innovations covered range from wider and more targeted use of mobile devices and electronic medical records to video cases and virtual patients, in clinical contexts from family practice to specialized surgery. At the same time, chapters detail both the necessary hardware for putting the...
