Description
On 16 June 2011 at 11:00, a seminar entitled "Lentiviral-Based Vectors: Development and Biotechnological Applications", organised by Sardegna Ricerche and promoted by the Enterprise Europe Network, will be held at the Technology Park of Sardinia in Pula.
The seminar will give an overview on how viral vectors have gained their popularity in basic research and gene therapy applications because of their high rates of gene transfer that are far superior to those achieved with non-viral methods.
Numerous types of virus-derived gene transfer systems are available these days. Among them, lentiviral vectors have emerged as potent and versatile tools for gene transfer into a whole range of different cell types as they are capable of infecting a wide variety of dividing and non-dividing cells, integrate stably into the host genome, and result in long term expression of the transgene.
The seminar is part of the series "Scientific Seminars in Biomedicine" totalling nine events scheduled from February to October 2011.
The official language of the seminar is English.
