In this episode, we discuss advances in gene therapy and its use in treating pediatric patients. Using modified viruses as delivery vehicles, researchers and clinicians can target therapies to specific types of cells, providing patients with long-lasting—and potentially life-long—treatments for a variety of severe genetic conditions. Future advances hope to make these therapies less expensive, less invasive, and more accessible for patients around the world and to expand their use for more common conditions.
