In addition, the familiarity of researchers with the field of gene therapy and the status of the country in this area is the goal of the 5th Symposium of "genetics and stem cells with gene therapy approach" and the presence of policymakers in it provides an appropriate context for the benefit of the enthusiasts and promotion of this field.

Regarding the importance of holding this event, it should be noted that gene therapy has been initiated since the 90s. However, the growth of this field was stopped due to problems. After many ups and downs and with regard to the current advancements made in single-gene diseases, researchers hope that this science will be the scientific replacement for many diseases that have no treatments.
