Abstract excerpt
Gene therapy offers unique therapeutic potential for treating rare genetic disorders such as DEE37, a severe Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy caused by biallelic loss-of-function mutations in the Ferric Chelate Reductase 1 Like (FRRS1L) gene, presenting with seizures, developmental delay, dyskinesia, ataxia and progressive, eventually debilitating cognitive and motor impairments. There is currently no...
