About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today I'm thrilled to be joined by Dr. Jane Smith, an expert in gene therapy and the lead instructor for the Postgraduate Certificate in Gene Therapy Delivery. Welcome, Jane! GUEST: Thanks for having me! I'm excited to be here. HOST: So, let's dive right in. Can you tell us about your personal experiences and insights related to gene therapy delivery? GUEST: Absolutely! I've been working in this field for over 15 years, and it's incredible to see how gene therapy has evolved. My research focuses on developing targeted delivery systems for gene therapies, ensuring they reach the right cells and have the desired effect. HOST: Fascinating! And what current industry trends do you think are most relevant to this course? GUEST: There are two key trends: gene editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas9 and nanotechnology applications in gene therapy. Both are rapidly advancing and have the potential to transform patient care. HOST: Indeed, those sound like hot topics. Now, what are some challenges faced in the field or while teaching this subject? GUEST: One major challenge is keeping up with the rapid pace of innovation. New techniques and technologies emerge constantly, making it essential to stay current. Additionally, understanding the regulatory aspects can be complex and time-consuming. HOST: That's true. Speaking of the future, where do you see gene therapy delivery heading in the next 5-10 years? GUEST: I believe we'll see more personalized medicine, with gene therapies tailored to individual patients. We'll also likely see broader adoption of these treatments, making a significant impact on healthcare. HOST: Dr. Smith, thank you so much for sharing your insights with us today! It's been a pleasure learning from your expertise. GUEST: My pleasure! Thanks for having me.
