Researchers have engineered red blood cell carriers that release therapeutic proteins when stimulated by light, with the help of a honey bee peptide

Microbubbles are small manufactured spheres half the size of a red blood cell—and scientists believe they can be used to transport drugs to highly specific locations within the body

Pioneering research shows how high-frequency sound waves can help build smart materials and new nanoparticles as well as deliver drugs to the lungs

New research opens up the possibility of a new class of molecular probes and targeted drug delivery systems

Researchers find a sixfold variation in the levels of itraconazole in the blood and tumors of patients—even at the same dosage

Researchers have designed a simple, low-cost device for subcutaneous injection of viscous formulations

Study opens important perspectives for treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease, but also epilepsy, brain trauma, and stroke

New research shows that it is possible to manipulate microbubbles through the use of "acoustical tweezers," a tool that uses an acoustical beam to trap an object without contact

Researchers have developed a platform for the slow and controlled release of a full spectrum of cannabinoids into the body

A research team has developed wirelessly driven 'smart contact lens' technology that can detect diabetes and further treat diabetic retinopathy just by being worn
