I was curious on what the difference is between gene correction and gene therapy?
Thanks, Kristi

Gene theraphy is a generic name to designate all possibilities of therapy with gene: for example the use of virus to delivery dystrophin gene to cells, to replace the defective gene. Gene correction is the use of oligonucleotides to fix the defective gene of patient. I am not a specialist and this is that I understand.
