Our research program is focused on developing a state-of-art molecular medicine platform to address the unmet clinical needs for several monogenic human diseases (haemophilia, retinal degeneration) and cancers (hepatocellular carcinoma, leukaemia). To achieve this, we interface at the basic biology of a virus (AAV) and its translational science; utilizing a variety of molecular, cellular and preclinical models.
