Genome editing technologies are progressing with an unprecedented speed. Medicinal products developed using these novel technologies may potentially ameliorate or cure genetic diseases. However, they also come with complexities and challenges during their development, manufacture, evaluation and ultimately making them available to patients. This meeting brings together leading academic institutions as well as industry stakeholders with the most advanced development programmes using genome editing to discuss the current state of art, challenges and opportunities linked with genome editing and to present case studies of the most advanced developments.
