    Bob Langer, Vijay Pande, Hanne Tidnam, Hannah

    This presentation traces the evolution of biomaterials and drug delivery from 20th-century improvisation to modern rational engineering driven by high-throughput automation and robotics. It details how regulatory shifts and the transition to protein and gene therapies have necessitated sophisticated controlled-release systems for treating complex diseases like cancer and diabetes. Looking forward, the industry is pivoting toward regenerative medicine and longevity research, aiming to solve critical challenges in organ engineering and multi-omics data interpretation.
