Strategies to Accelerate the Development of Gene Therapies

Gene therapy is a growing area of treatment where genes are modified or replaced to treat disease. Rapid growth in gene therapeutics and delivery systems has been facilitated by advanced technologies that enable precise gene editing and characterization of genes and delivery systems. From large-scale screening to focused gene editing, CRISPR is a powerful genome editing technology.

Agilent offers broad gene editing solutions that can be seamlessly integrated to advance the development of your safe and effective gene therapies.
