Gene-editing Technologies: Powerful Tools for Rewriting the Code of Life

The Cell and Gene Therapy (CGT) Science Series is a quarterly seminar series focused on scientific topics related to cell and gene therapy products. The CGT Science Series is intended to foster scientific exchange between the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO), the American Society of Cell & Gene Therapy (ASGCT), and Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) review staff on a variety of topics that span the CGT product lifecycle. The seminars are planned as 60-minute virtual webinars featuring a speaker from one of the three organizations.
