Annual ASGCT Kohn lab (past and present) dinner. It's always great catching up with previous members. Hearing their success stories and how they're leading their own group inspires to us even more to be great in this field. #ASGCT2024

3rd year Phd Candidate Christopher Luthers is here to discuss our gene editing strategy to develop a long-term cure for X-linked Agammaglobulinemia (XLA), an immune disorder that causes the inability to produce mature B cells which results in low levels of antibody production.
