However, the lungs are complex in their anatomy and physiology, which poses challenges to drug delivery. Inhaled formulations are generally more sophisticated than those for oral and parenteral administration. Pulmonary drug development is therefore a highly specialized area because of its many unique issues and challenges. Rapid progress is being made and offers novel solutions to existing treatment problems. \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAdvances in Pulmonary Drug Delivery\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e highlights the latest developments in this field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilip Chi Lip Kwok\u003c\/strong\u003e, BPharm(Hons), PhD, is an assistant professor at the Department of Pharmacology and Pharmacy, The University of Hong Kong.
