Intro to Non-Viral Vectors

April 27, 2023 | 12:00 PM CT


There are different kinds of vectors, or delivery methods, used in gene and cell therapy to get working genetic material to a cell. This session will explore the use of non-viral vectors as a mechanism to deliver this material and give examples and reason for being used over traditional viral vectors. Experts will review the various types of non-viral vectors including integrase and transposon systems and delivery methods for them, as well as technical challenges and limitations to successful non-viral gene transfer.
