    Current estimates suggest that over 11 million people are diagnosed with cancer globally and sadly over 8 million die from cancer-related causes annually.
    The European School of Oncology (ESO) has had a significant commitment over the past two decades in contributing towards an improved cancer care, ranging from preventive and
    screening measures to the education of the cancer care team in general. The ESO Global Insight Conference should add a further dimension by focusing on specific cancers in multiple geographic locations to develop a good infrastructure for improving patients' outcomes through
    education.

    Almost all chemicals currently used as drug delivery excipients were originally developed for use in the textile, adhesives, construction, electronics, and polymer industries. Attempting to exploit the drug delivery potential of these materials, formulators find they often fail to provide the specialized delivery of today’s pharmaceuticals that they require. Drug delivery technologies continue to be a vital piece of the pharmaceutical marketing puzzle. From clinical efficacy to product differentiation and life-cycle management, delivery technologies are increasingly demanding the attention of developers at earlier and earlier stages.
