Welcome![edit]

Hello, Kirktk, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

  • You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 00:13, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ocular Gene Therapy-The Future Is Now.[edit]

Huang, Suber S.; High, Katherine; Toso, Raffaella Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology. 5(4):227-228, July/August 2016.

If you have access to medline you should be able to get the pdf.

If not, here's a recent open article

CRISPR[edit]

IMHO, you should include gene correction with CRISPR in the gene delivery upgrade. It doesn't seem that the references you included on the talk page will cover that. Here's a recent open article:

The Combination of CRISPR/Cas9 and iPSC Technologies in the Gene Therapy of Human β-thalassemia in Mice

http://www.nature.com/articles/srep32463 DennisPietras (talk) 04:39, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Dennis Pietras, I appreciate your input! Both papers look promising and I definitely agree that the CRISPR/Cas system deserves a place for the page to be current. Kirktk (talk) 01:57, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
