| Description: |
An examination of gene transfer technology, a powerful tool for increasing the scientific understanding of brain functions. The contributors to this volume discuss different transgenes, vectors, target cells and clinical applications related to the nervous system. |
| Synopsis: |
Gene transfer technology is a powerful tool for increasing our understanding of brain functions. It is also the basis of gene therapy, which is now technically possible for the correction of many human diseases, including several disorders of the nervous (and muscular) system such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and dystrophy. This volume, which contains the proceedings of a symposium of the Fondation Ipsen, provides a unique view of the state of the art on different transgenes, vectors, target cells and clinical applications. |
