Technological Advances and Innovations in the Treatment of Chronic Respiratory Disorders focuses on 3D printing, bioprinting, microfluidics, organ-on-a-chip systems, and molecular modeling. The book, written by a team of leading experts in the field, is an essential resource for anyone interested in the future of CRD treatment. Chapters discuss the emerging therapeutic approaches for CRDs, including biologicals and phytoceuticals. Core chapters of the book then cover the application of 3D printing, bioprinting, microfluidics, organ-on-a-chip systems, and molecular modeling to different CRDs. The book concludes with a discussion of the current clinical trials and future prospects for the management of CRDs.

This is a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and other healthcare professionals who are interested in the latest technological advances in the field of CRDs. It will also be of interest to students and scientists working in the fields of pharmaceutical sciences, microfluidics, bioinformatics, drug design, drug delivery, and 3D printing.

Gabriele holds a Bachelor's Degree in Biotechnology ("La Sapienza" University of Rome, Italy) and a Master's
degree in Genetic Sciences and Technologies (University of Sannio, Benevento, Italy). He has just
completed a PhD in Pharmacy (thesis under examination) at the Discipline of Pharmacy, Graduate School
of Health, UTS, with a thesis on the development of advanced drug delivery systems for respiratory diseases.
Gabriele has extensive experience as an industry-based researcher, particularly in the setup and
evaluation of animal (mouse and rat) models of cancer and inflammatory diseases and in the preclinical
in vivo testing of the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic properties of novel anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory
drugs.
Gabriele's current expertise and research interest cover the in vitro advanced
drug delivery of phytoceuticals and nucleic acid-based therapeutics (decoy oligodeoxynucleotides,
miRNAs) for the treatment of respiratory inflammatory diseases and lung cancer.

Dr Ronan MacLoughlin, PhD MBS, is currently director of Research and Development, Science and Emerging Technologies in Aerogen limited and Irish medical device company specializing in respiratory drug delivery. He has more than 25 years of experience in the design and development of aerosol drug delivery systems and drug/device combination products. He currently has more than 120 articles, and multiple conference presentations and conference papers combined with several patents. He holds the position of adjunct associate professor in Trinity College Dublin’s (Ireland) Department of Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology, honorary Senior Lecturer in the Royal College of Surgeons Ireland (RCSI), nonexecutive director on the board of several startup and scaling Med tech and pharmaceutical companies. Additionally, he is currently chair of the pediatric and cystic fibrosis working group within the International Society for aerosols in medicine. In 2024 he was honored with the Thomas T Mercer award, recognizing Dr MacLoughlin’s excellence in the areas of pharmaceutical aerosols and inhalable materials.development of drug delivery systems and drug device combinations, he has >220 collaborative publications,
as well as 12 granted patents.

His most recent focus has been on enabling several clinical programs making use of aerosolised prophylactics
and therapeutics for COVID-19, and his work on delivery of inhaled vaccines has resulted in the
world’s first approval for an orally inhaled vaccine for COVID-19 (Convidecia Air). His contribution to the
state of the art in fugitive medical and patient-derived aerosols was central to the evolution of several
critical care consensus statements around the safe use of aerosol therapy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
