The Controlled Release Society (CRS) is the premier society worldwide for delivery science and technology. CRS serves members from more than 50 countries. Two-thirds of CRS membership represents industry and one-third represents academia and government.

The field of controlled release encompasses scientific and technical efforts to regulate the spatial and temporal effects of agents in diverse areas including human and animal health as well as non-pharmaceutical areas such as agriculture, cosmetics and consumer products, and the environment.

Over the years the mission of CRS has broadened to cover all aspects of delivery science and technology, including increasingly the biological, physiological, preclinical, clinical, and development aspects in addition to maintaining a core focus in the physical science-based aspects such as formulation, processing, synthetic chemistry, and characterization. 

The controlled release field draws on the expertise of many disciplines including chemistry, chemical engineering, pharmaceutics, physics, materials science, and the biological sciences—biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology, physiology, cell biology, and medicine to name a few.

Today, delivery science and technology is developing into a key multi-disciplinary field with diverse applications and practitioners around the world. The CRS has as a goal to be the premier society world-wide for delivery science and technology.
