PROSPECTS AND LIMITATIONS OF GENE THERAPY

Анотація

The emergence of fundamentally new technologies that allow active manipulation of genes and their fragments, and which provide targeted delivery of new blocks of genetic information in a given area of the genome, has become an important event in biology and medicine. Even now, at the current level of knowledge about the human genome, it is theoretically possible to modify it in order to improve some physical and mental parameters. Genetic engineering is also possible at the level of germ cells.
