Education
Programs
7:00 p.m. – 10:15 p.m.
The
goal of the ASGT Education Program is to introduce participants to areas
of gene therapy research with which they do not have significant
familiarity. There are multiple sessions on viral and non-viral gene
transfer vectors, which will be presented as workshops scheduled on
various days of the Annual Meeting. These educational workshops will focus
on the basic science and methodologies of production and purification of
these vectors for preclinical studies and clinical applications. |
