Q&A: Gene therapy opportunities from long-read sequencing 

Drug Discovery World

Breakthroughs in gene therapy are only possible with an exact understanding of the genetic underpinnings of disease. To develop safe and effective gene therapies, researchers need confidence that genomic data is both complete and accurate.
