Cystic Fibrosis

Award/Grant: Research Grants

● Gene Editing — Gene editing has the potential to ‘fix’ mutations in the CFTR gene and represents a promising avenue of research with therapeutic potential, especially for those with rare and nonsense mutations.
● Exogenous Delivery of Full-length CFTR Gene — Inserting a full-length, wild-type CFTR gene to compensate for mutant alleles could restore CFTR levels and functions.
● RNA Editing — RNA editing refers to post-transcription modification of RNA molecules to make changes to specific nucleotide sequences. These changes may include insertions, deletions, and base substitutions.           Non-viral vectors for DNA and RNA delivery — Given the recent advances in novel encapsulation techniques and formulations with carrier particles and customized chemical modifications of nanoparticles, we are focusing our initial efforts to derisk non-viral delivery platforms for genetic therapies.
