N2 - The advent of nanotechnology has resulted in an exponential improvement in drug delivery systems. Special attention is drawn to the use of nanogels which are nanosized hydrogels as effective drug delivery polymeric materials. Nanogels are 3-dimensional polymeric chains with sizes ranging from 100 to 200 nm. Their non-toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability make them well suited for this purpose. Emerging studies have shown that the use of machine learning (ML) can optimize the drug-carrying and delivery of nanogels. This review would identify the mechanisms of nanogel drug delivery, commonly used machine learning models, areas of possible application of machine learning as it concerns nanogel drug delivery, and limitations in the application of machine learning.
