CourseDetails
• Gene Therapy Fundamentals: An introduction to gene therapy, including its history, principles, and current state. This unit covers the basics of DNA, RNA, and gene expression, as well as the different types of gene therapy vectors.
• Viral Vectors in Gene Therapy: A detailed exploration of viral vectors used in gene therapy, such as retroviruses, adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses. This unit covers the design, production, and safety considerations of viral vectors.
• Non-Viral Delivery Systems: An examination of non-viral delivery systems for gene therapy, including physical methods (e.g. electroporation, sonoporation) and chemical methods (e.g. lipid-based nanoparticles, polymer-based nanoparticles). This unit also covers the advantages and limitations of non-viral delivery systems.
• Clinical Applications of Gene Therapy: An overview of the various clinical applications of gene therapy, including cancer, monogenic disorders, and infectious diseases. This unit covers ongoing clinical trials, regulatory considerations, and ethical issues related to gene therapy.
• Genome Editing Technologies: A deep dive into genome editing technologies, such as CRISPR-Cas9, TALENs, and ZFNs. This unit covers the mechanisms, applications, and safety considerations of genome editing.
• Immunotherapy and Gene Therapy: An exploration of the intersection between immunotherapy and gene therapy, including the use of gene therapy to modify immune cells, enhance immune responses, and treat immune disorders. This unit also covers the challenges and future prospects of combining immunotherapy and gene therapy.
• Gene Therapy Regulation and Ethics: A discussion on the regulation and ethics of gene therapy, including the ethical considerations surrounding human gene editing, safety concerns, and the role of regulatory agencies. This unit covers international guidelines, legislation, and best practices for gene therapy.
