Gene Therapy Technologies, Applications and Regulations
From Laboratory to Clinic
Edited by ANTHONY MEAGER, The National Institute for Biological Standards and Control, UK
An authoritative and comprehensive read, this book brings together, for the first time, current data previously
separated in health authority and regulatory guidelines, government legislative documents, and primary literature.
It combines information on gene therapy technologies and the attendant regulatory requirements for gene therapy
products and procedures. With ever-increasing interest in this subject and a lack of authoritative texts to date,
this is an important contribution to the field.
