ABSTRACT
Medical nanotechnology has made broad incremental contributions
to improving the effectiveness of existing drugs, diagnostics, pros-
thetics, patient monitoring, and personal health care maintenance.
The evolutionary growth of nanomedicine arose from research
that progressed from the micro-to the nanoscale, and from the
molecular scale back up to the nanoscale. Now, nanoparticle-based
therapeutics is poised to have significant impact on the treatment
of neurodegenerative diseases. In this chapter, we aim to attract
interdisciplinary attention for future integration of the recent nano-
based biotechnological achievements with the clinical need of early
diagnosis and complete cure for neurodegenerative diseases.
