Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine

Computational Studies in Nanoparticles

The computational studies in nanoparticles have demonstrated that there has been considerable progress in Nano and biotechnology in the last several years. However, several key challenges have also become apparent, including the need for a better understanding of nanoparticle behaviour in vivo and the development of more effective nanoparticle therapeutics. Computational efforts are becoming an important tool in addressing both of these challenges, as well as in generally facilitating and accelerating nanotechnology-based translational research. The Nanoinformatics has come out as a new research area that covers raw data management, analysis of the data derived from biomedical applications and simulation of nanoparticle interactions with biological systems depicting the integration of biology, nanotechnology and informatics to form the basis for computational Nanomedicine.
