Dr. Umesh Gupta, currently working as Assistant Professor at Department of Pharmacy, Central University of Rajasthan, India, did his bachelor's, master's and doctorate degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences from Dr. H. S. Gour University, India under the mentorship of Prof. NK Jain. He has recently been awarded for “DAAD Research Stays for Academics and Scientists” at Leibniz-institut fur Polymerforschung Dresden, Germany. He has the past experience of Research Scientist at Ranbaxy Research Laboratories, India and Post-Doctoral Research Associate at South Dakota State University, USA. HE is also recipient of Young Scientist Award by Department of Science and Technology, Government of India as well as Ranbaxy Science Scholar Award 2008 by Ranbaxy Research Laboratories, India. He has been awarded more than 3-4 times the overseas travel award by different funding agencies of Indian government to share and present his research at international platform in countries like Germany, USA and Singapore etc. He has more than ten years of research and academic experience. The area of research is mainly focused on dendrimer mediated drug delivery, solubilization and targeting. His laboratory equally focuses on effective brain delivery through nanotechnological carriers such as polymeric micelles, nanoparticles and dendrimers. He has more than 48 publications and seven book chapters to his credit with total citations of more than 2300 (h index of 23 as per Google Scholar). Dr. Prashant Kesharwani, PhD, is an Assistant Professor of Pharmaceutics at Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Dr.Harisingh Gour Vishwavidyalaya University, Sagar, Madhya Pradesh, India. He has more than 12 years of teaching, research,and industrial experience across various countries. An overarching goal of his current research is the development ofnanoengineered drug delivery systems for various diseases. He has more than 400 international publications in well-reputedjournals and more than 30 international books (Elsevier). His work has garnered 40,000 + citations, with an h-index of above100, making him one of the youngest Indian researchers to achieve an h-index of 100 at the age of 41. He is a recipientof many research grants from various funding bodies. He is also the recipient of several internationally acclaimed awards,such as “USERN Laureate award” and “SERB-Ramanujan Fellowship Award.” He has presented many invited talks and oralpresentations at prestigious scientific peer-conferences, received international acclaims and awards for research contribution,supervised students/junior researchers, and actively participated in outreach and scientific dissemination for the service ofthe wider community.

*4 stars* "...presents an overview of the use of nanocarrier- based technologies in the treatment of different forms of dementia…. [including] the complex nature of dementia, its etiology, possible targets, and receptors, and to highlight different approaches for the treatment of this complex human disease, with an emphasis on the use of nanotechnology and nanocarriers…. The book is written for undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students working in treating dementia via nanotechnology and drug delivery systems, as well as medical doctors interested in new ways to treat dementia and related neurodegenerative diseases…. [S]upported by color figures and illustrations, comprehensive tables, and schemes and diagrams that generate a very appealing book…. [that] succeeds, being a great addition to other similar books. Its unique approach to dementia treatment… together with nanotechnological details and the high-quality graphics make it a very useful and pleasant read." --©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, Marc A Ilies, PhD (Temple University School of Pharmacy)
