Human Gene Therapy

Human gene therapy is a medical technique that aims to treat or prevent diseases by modifying a person's genes. It involves introducing, removing, or altering genetic material within a patient's cells. This can help correct genetic disorders, restore normal function, or enhance the body's ability to fight diseases. Gene therapy can be delivered in various ways, such as through viruses that act as delivery vehicles. While it holds great promise, it's still an evolving field with ongoing research to ensure safety and effectiveness in clinical applications.
