Abstract
This Conference Report recaps recent advances in the research on phospholipids and their applications for advanced drug delivery and analytical purposes that have been presented at the “8th International Symposium on Phospholipids in Pharmaceutical Research” of the Phospholipid Research Center (PRC), held from September 09–11, 2024, at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. The PRC is a non-profit organization focused on expanding and sharing scientific and technological knowledge of phospholipids in pharmaceutical and related applications. This is accomplished by, e.g., funding doctoral and postdoctoral research projects at universities worldwide. The PRC organizes this symposium every two years, at which international experts from science and industry present innovative and new applications of phospholipids. This year’s symposium highlighted advancements in lipid-based gene and RNA delivery, anisotropic lipid nanoparticles, PEGylation challenges, tetraether lipids for drug delivery, ethical considerations in publishing, multifunctional lipopeptides, and phospholipid applications in therapeutics. Discussions also showcased award-winning research on optimizing liposome drug compatibility, reflecting the expanding role of phospholipids in pharmaceutical science.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes research articles, review articles and scientific commentaries on all aspects of the pharmaceutical sciences with emphasis on conceptual novelty and scientific quality. The Editors welcome articles in this multidisciplinary field, with a focus on topics relevant for drug discovery and development.
More specifically, the Journal publishes reports on medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, drug absorption and metabolism, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, drug delivery (including gene delivery), drug targeting, pharmaceutical technology, pharmaceutical biotechnology and clinical drug evaluation. The journal will typically not give priority to manuscripts focusing primarily on organic synthesis, natural products, adaptation of analytical approaches, or discussions pertaining to drug policy making.
Scientific commentaries and review articles are generally by invitation only or by consent of the Editors. Proceedings of scientific meetings may be published as special issues or supplements to the Journal.
