This book presents a multidisciplinary assessment of the state of science in the use of systemic delivery technologies to deliver anti-aging therapeutics now under development.
Dr. Wing-Fu Lai obtained his M.Sc. in Materials Engineering and Nanotechnology from the City University of Hong Kong and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Hong Kong. He joined the Faculty in the School of Life and Health Sciences at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) in 2019 and is also an Adjunct Faculty in the Department of Applied Biology and Chemical Technology at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His research interests cover the synthesis and engineering of polymeric materials for gene delivery and controlled drug release, and the development of nanoparticulate systems for theranostic applications.
