Summary Introduction
To review:
The difference between the ex-vivo and in-vivo gene therapy.
Introduction:
Gene therapy is a therapeutic technique of transferring normal genes into the patients suffering from genetic disorders. The normal genes which are tailor-made in laboratories, after being transferred are then transcribed producing normal products. This way the correct
