Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are gaining attention as natural drug delivery systems due to their biocompatibility, targeted delivery capabilities, and minimal immunogenicity. Recent advancements in EV-based drug delivery highlight their potential for improving therapeutic outcomes in various diseases. This Special Issue focuses on the development and application of EVs for drug delivery, with an emphasis on innovative quantification techniques essential for standardizing their use in clinical and research settings. We welcome submissions on novel methods for EV quantification, quality control, and their role in optimizing EV-based drug delivery systems. You are invited to contribute to advancing this promising field of research.

Dr. Surin Hong
Guest Editor
