Genethon’s R&D to be Featured in Multiple Presentations at ASGCT Annual Meeting, May 16-19
Genethon will be featured in six presentations at the 25th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Cell and Gene Therapy (ASCGT), May 16-19, 2022, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. The international convention attracts thousands of scientists, physicians, patient advocates and government officials. Attendees can participate in-person or virtually.
“Our scientists not only are presenting some of the most significant advances to date in gene therapy research, but they also are serving as co-chairs for several portions of the program at this distinguished global convention,” said Frederic Revah, Genethon CEO. “Genethon has pioneered development of gene therapy for rare diseases for more than 30 years and thousands of patients around the world already are benefitting from our research.”
Genethon’s Anne Galy, Ph.D., Director of the Integrare Research Unit, is co-chair of the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Gene Therapy oral abstract session and the Inborn Metabolic Issues scientific symposium, and Mario Amendola, Ph.D., Genethon’s Head of the Gene Editing Laboratory, is co-chair of the RNA Virus Vectors oral abstract session.
Following are Genethon’s oral abstract and poster session presentations (all times are U.S. EDT).
