Genetic Medicine Community

Over the last 25 years The Belfer Gene Therapy Core Facility and the Department of Genetic Medicine has had over 200 research technicians that have contributed to the science in numerous ways and authored peer review publications, presented at national meetings and won awards. As a result of this collaboration, they have moved on to a disparate array of professional careers. We are proud of them and glad to have provided a steppingstone along the way.
