The Cell and Gene Therapy Journey
Gene Therapy and Cell Therapy are overlapping fields of biomedical research with similar therapeutic goals. Gene Therapy can be defined as the use of genetic material (usually deoxyribonucleic acid - DNA) to manipulate a patient’s cells for the treatment of an inherited or acquired disease. Cell Therapy can be defined as the infusion or transplantation of whole cells into a patient for the treatment of an inherited or acquired disease.
