Common use of Gene Therapy Clause in Contracts

Gene Therapy. Students will learn the history of gene therapy and the principal concepts behind gene therapy applications. We will cover the early gene therapy failures and the important lessons learned from these studies, which led to modified strategies based upon improved understanding of genetic components and how this knowledge led to successful translation for the treatment of human diseases like genetic disorders and cancer. Genome Editing: Students will be introduced to genome editing technologies, including transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated nuclease Cas9. Bioinformatics: Students will get an overview of bioinformatics resources for analysis of protein sequences. They will be introduced to immunomic and infectivity databases and learn how to deal with immunogenicity analysis. Assessment method Emerging Viral Infections: Discovery and Intervention Strategies Organization: Hannover Medical School Teaching unit coordinator: Teaching unit coordinator: Xxxxxx XXXXXXXXX, Xxxx XXXXXXXXXXX Teaching unit outline Topics addressed
