Workshop

Emerging Gene Delivery Technology for Neurodegenerative Diseases

Krystof Bankiewicz, MD, PhD, President & CEO, Brain Neurotherapy Bio, CEO, Columbus Children’s Foundation
Tuesday, Feb. 23
1:30-3:30pm ET

Using Parkinson’s, multiple system atrophy and Huntington’s as clinical case studies, this session looks to address the following key topics:

  • What novel devices are advancing for gene therapy delivery specifically for neurodegenerative diseases?
  • What improvements have there been in the last year?
  • What common challenges are we yet to have overcome?
  • Considering the route of administration and patient population size, to what extent is gene therapy a viable option for Alzheimer’s Disease and Parkinson’s Disease?
  • Advances and progress in developing gene therapies for the rare and ultra-rare neurodegenerative disorders
