Sperm-inspired robots controlled by magnetic fields may be useful for drug delivery, IVF, cell sorting and other applications at the microscopic level.

Researchers have created a prototype system that uses a mathematical model to predict - and a portable inkjet technology to produce - precise medication dosages tailored for specific patients, an advance in personalized medicine that could improve drug effectiveness and reduce adverse reactions.

UD researchers demonstrate that processing can affect size of nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery.

Researchers at the University of Delaware have developed a “smart” hydrogel that can deliver medicine on demand, in response to mechanical force.
