1. Stapled Peptides for Intracellular Drug Targets
2. Mapping of vascular zip codes by phage display
3. Engineering cyclic peptide toxins
4. Peptide Discovery using Bacterial Display and Flow Cytometry

Part V: Scaffolds
5. Designed Ankyrin Repeat Proteins (DARPins): From research to therapy
6. Target-binding proteins based on the tenth human fibronectin type III domain (10Fn3)
7. Anticalins: small engineered binding proteins based on the lipocalin scaffold
8. T Cell Receptor Engineering
9. Engineering Knottins as Novel Binding Agents

Part VI: Pharmacokinetics
10. Practical Theoretic Guidance for the Design of Tumor Targeting Agents
11. Re-Engineering Biopharmaceuticals for Targeted Delivery Across the Blood-Brain Barrier
12. Engineering and Identifying Supercharged Proteins for Macromolecule Delivery into Mammalian Cells
