Development of a gene delivery system to access neuronal cells

了解基因传递和有效表达的途径将导致生物技术和细胞生物学领域的新知识。该项目将为神经元的囊泡运输途径提供重要的新信息。一个有效的基因传递系统将为我们的合作伙伴组织实现巨大的商业潜力，并为澳大利亚其他行业带来经济效益。该项目直接符合“促进和保持良好健康”的国家研究优先事项，对身心退化患者及其家属有特殊好处。

Understanding the pathways for gene delivery and efficient expression will result in new knowledge in the areas of biotechnology and cell biology. This project will result in significant new information on vesicular trafficking pathways in neurons. An effective gene delivery system will realise significant commercial potential for our partner organisations and economic benefit to other Australian industry. This project aligns directly with the National Research Priority of "Promoting and maintaining good health" with a specific benefit for patients that suffer mental and physical degeneration and for their families.
