In this Very Special Episode, Emily Walsh Martin, PhD explores the cutting-edge transposase-based technology presented by SalioGen at the ASGCT Annual Meeting in which they achieved gene insertion without double-strand breaks. Join us as Jason Cole, CEO at SalioGen, takes us on a captivating journey through the company's groundbreaking work, including their initial data in Stargardt disease using LNP delivery to photoreceptors.

But that's not all! Discover Jason's unconventional path from small molecules to genetic medicines and gain insights into the strategic value of using a target product profile to guide development decisions.

Finally, we delve into the transformative potential of genetic medicine, bridging the gap from bench to bedside to payer-to-patient access.

And before we dive in, a quick reminder: The ASGCT Policy Summit (Sept 23-24 in DC or online) is an absolute must for R&D scientists, analytical experts, clinical researchers, and program managers seeking a comprehensive understanding of genetic medicine development. Don't miss this crucial conversation between regulators, payors, patients, caregivers, and developers.
