nice friend:
hope to hear abt the succes of gene therapy .....
Andy Battaglia:
This process seems to be very similar to what Thalagen is also involved with, in conjunction with Dr Michael Sadelain. I do not know if they are utilizing the same vector for delivery of the genes, but hopefully we will be learning more as time passes. Please be aware that this will be a long process involving very few patients at first, as researchers determine if it is safe long term and also effective long term. I hope we can learn more at the Singapore conference about both company's research.
