Summary
“Total design” of nanomedical systems means that you must take a total system-level design approach, but where the order in the design process matters – and each design step affects all preceding and subsequent design steps. The total design concept means that the essence of the design is a multilayered approach corresponding to a multistep targeting and drug delivery process. This chapter teaches how to design integrated nanomedical systems.
