Gene therapy is one of the most interesting plays in life sciences today.
The US National Library of Medicine defines gene therapies as: ways to prevent or treat diseases by using genes.
Gene therapies have the potential to treat patients by inserting a gene into a cell rather than treating the patient with drugs or surgeries.
This has the possibility of treating inherited diseases, cancer and viral infections. Gene therapy has the potential to be performed as a one time event, unlike other treatment options. However the research field is decades old, the commercial market seems to be booming in current days.
