About this Research Topic
This Research Topic aims to bring together leading researchers to exchange and share their findings on the hot topics of novel nanotechnology for understanding eye physiology, diagnosing eye disorders and treating eye diseases. For example, intravitreal nanoparticles could be used to treat age-related macular degeneration and/or diabetic retinopathy, where conventional delivery systems prove sub-optimal because of factors affecting the drug dynamics . Briefly, personalized diagnosis and therapy originating from nanomedicine should be included in this Research Topic.
We welcome all investigators to submit their best research addressing applications of biosensors, tissue engineering, diagnostic devices, for this Research Topic, on the areas of:
• Nanomedicine and biomaterials; including delivery systems and materials for tissue engineering for the eye
• Translational medicine based on nanomedicine, including biosensors and diagnostic devices for eye disorders
• Stem cell therapy based on nanomedicine for eye diseases
This Research Topic can include Original Research, Reviews, and Perspectives.
We would like to acknowledge Yuqing Wu as the Research Topic Co-ordinator for this collection.
