Building a Strong Foundation for Scientific Discovery
Integrating Education, Mentorship, and Research
The Human Gene Therapy Program is dedicated to training the next generation of scientists and physician-investigators. Through graduate and medical school teaching, hands-on research opportunities, and dedicated mentorship across multiple labs, trinees gain the skills and guidance needed to become independent and skilled researchers.
Alumni of the program have gone on to faculty positions at leading universities, advanced fellowships, and impactful careers in the biopharmaceutical industry. The program fosters a rich scientific environment where trainees are encouraged to develop hypothesis-driven research ideas and carry them through with rigor and precision.
Initiatives such as the NIH-funded Program of Excellence in Gene Therapy bridge basic science and clinical application, preparing a new class of investigators to lead the future of gene therapy.
