The application of nanotechnology in pharmaceutical
sciences has opened a new frontier in targeted drug
delivery, known as nanomedicine. This interdisciplinary
field combines engineering, materials science, and
molecular biology to design carriers that deliver drugs
directly to diseased tissues, thereby increasing efficacy and
reducing systemic side effects. The unique properties of
nanoparticles, such as high surface area-to-volume ratio and
tunable surface chemistry, enable them to bypass biological
barriers and release drugs at controlled rates.
