The 9th Australasian Gene Therapy Society meeting is scheduled for April 29 to May 1, 2015 in Melbourne. This is a must-do event for medical researchers and clinicians fascinated by the recent progress in gene therapy and stem cell biology.

It is expected over 200+ professionals in gene therapy, cell-based therapies, RNA therapeutics, biomarkers and related fields will attend this event proudly sponsored by Murdoch University.

The agenda will include internationally renowned speakers whose presentations will detail cutting edge gene therapy trials on inherited and acquired genetic disorders, recent developments in viral and non-viral gene therapy vectors, novel oligonucleotide therapeutics and the latest in biomarker development.
