2024 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Biomolecular Engineering II: Disease Diagnosis and Therapeutic Interventions

Timely, accurate diagnosis and treatment of disease are vital to improving health outcomes. In this session, we present biomolecular engineering approaches to enable rapid, sensitive detection of disease as well as new methods for targeted therapeutics. Therapeutic interventions include both engineered drug conjugates and novel delivery strategies.
