INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY ARTICLES

Tom opening remarks Does Drug Discovery Anticipate Delivery?

In this article, Chief Editor Tom von Gunden considers the relationship between drug discovery and drug delivery. His commentary includes reflections on conversations and encounters from the Discovery & Development US conference, where formulation and delivery topics were also in the air and on the agenda.
