Selective Targeting Distal Small Airways by AAV Vectors (...) – Xiaopeng Li, PhD

Dr. Xiaopeng Li, Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development in the College of Human Medicine at Michigan State University, presents results from CFRI-funded research on selective targeting distal small airways by adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors. He discusses findings from CF pig models that support AAV4 as a suitable viral vector for CF gene therapy to target small airway secretory cells. This presentation was part of CFRI's Virtual 35th National CF Education Conference.

CFRI's 35th National CF Education Conference was sponsored by Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Genentech, Gilead Sciences, Chiesi USA, AbbVie, and Ionis Pharmaceuticals.
