Gene Delivery Seminar Series

Stay up to date with the latest advances in all things gene delivery, from vector design to therapeutic development, with VectorBuilder’s Gene Delivery Seminar Series. This virtual seminar series brings together leading scientists, researchers, and industry experts to share insights on cutting-edge technologies, emerging R&D, and practical strategies in gene delivery. These seminars are part of VectorBuilder’s ongoing commitment to supporting the global research community with free, expert-led educational resources.

Upcoming Seminar

New Fluorescent Tools for Tracking Retinal Photoreceptor Dynamics and Protein Renewal

In the retina, vision begins when light is captured by opsin proteins within photoreceptor outer segments, specialized sensory cilia that continuously renew. While this process is well characterized in rods, technical limitations have made it difficult to quantify in cones. This seminar will explore a high-precision in vivo pulse-chase labeling platform using SNAP-tag opsin fusions and AAV-mediated expression to track opsin turnover over time. This approach confirms known renewal rates in rods while revealing distinct dynamics in cones, providing new insights into photoreceptor renewal under physiological and pathological conditions.

Date: Thursday, October 22^nd
Time: 11:00 AM EST | 4:00 PM BST
