Exclusive seminar for staff of the institution.
Abstract
Gene transfer using recombinant adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors represents a promising approach to treat human diseases. In this presentation, I will provide an overview of our work on the development of AAV-based gene therapies for two severe pediatric diseases, X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) and spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy (SMA-PME), and current challenges in the field.
