Focus Topic: Smart Multifunctional Materials for Nanomedicine (SM)

Advanced point-of-care nanobiosensors and multifunctional drug delivery nanoplatforms have tremendous potential to revolutionize the future personalized nanomedicine in the simultaneous diagnosis and therapy, which takes the name of theranostics. The new Smart Multifunctional Materials for Nanomedicine Focus Topic at AVS 67 brings together the most applicative aspects, mostly health care-oriented but also connected to the areas of environment (e.g., biosafety and ecotoxicological challenges) and energy (e.g., energy-converting issues in photo-, radiation-, ultrasound-, magnetic field-, microwave-, electric field-, and radiofrequency-based nanomedicine or electricity generation by self-propelled cooperative mechanisms), of hybrid bio-interface science and plasma surface engineering, in close connection with BI and PS Divisions, respectively. Topics covered in the three planned sections include: biologically-inspired, hybrid multifunctional dynamic structures able to respond to changes in their environment for self-regulating thermal and lighting systems, targeted drug delivery (e.g., physical-, chemical-, and biological-responsive nanomedicine for precision drug delivery and cancer therapy), sensing, multi-component nanostructures for collective optical, self propellent and electrocatalysis properties; plasma-based processing of surfaces and nanofabrication, medicinal plasma; theranostics, wound healing and tissue repair.
