Accenture on nanotech for medicine

Abstract:
Christine Peterson: In their Medical Products industry section, Accenture analysts Roland Hengerer and Martin Illsley describe what we can expect from nanotech for medicine. The pharmaceutical and medical industry could be revolutionized by developments in nanotechnology. For example, instead of flushing the whole body with an ingested chemical, nano-engineered agents in pill form may be able to deliver drugs much more effectively and selectively to target cells.
