This volume presents stem cells and gene therapy together in one volume. Advances in molecular genetics and recombinant DNA technology have led to the identification of a plethora of disease causing genes. Encouraged by an understanding of the molecular basis of human disease and its connection to genetic changes that result in abnormal structure and function, human gene therapy research for medical therapeutic purposes has emerged as a global drug development effort.
