Somatic Cell Genome Editing (SCGE) Program

This symposium will highlight some of the most exciting science and successful facets of program design of the SCGE program. This session will demonstrate the facets of this program that are quintessential to all Common Fund programs: it’s transformative, catalytic, synergistic, cross-cutting, and unique features. The proposed speakers were selected for their unparalleled expertise, deep engagement with the SCGE program opportunities, and the broad relevance of their anticipated presentation to the ASGCT membership.
