    Glossary Gene Therapy

    involves altering genes to treat or prevent diseases

    Gene therapy is a medical technique that involves altering the genes inside a person's cells to treat or prevent disease. This can be done by replacing a faulty gene with a healthy one, inactivating a malfunctioning gene, or introducing a new gene to help fight a disease. It holds promise for treating a range of conditions, including genetic disorders, some types of cancer, and certain viral infections.
