摘要
Despite exciting progress in the biology underlying a variety of proposed molecular medicines, an unmet challenge Remains—delivery. This problem, how to better target the new generation of therapeutics, cuts across all diseases. The solution offers unprecedented opportunities for multidisciplinary teams of bioengineers to work with biological and medical scientists to realize the fruits of our nation's investment in molecular and cellular medicine.
