The ambitious goal of the project is to develop a new generation of lentiviral vectors for in vivo re-targetable engineering.

To this aim, we combine in vitro and in vivo work, thorough advanced genetic engineering tools.

The proposed projects build on our recent discovery of a window of opportunity to target hematopoietic stem cells in vivo early post birth by lentiviral vector systemic administration.

We aim now at developing new tools for in vivo engineering and test them in different disease models.
