🎙️ “Our goal is to develop muscle models that truly reflect human disease – and use them to fast-track gene therapy testing.” – frederic.relaix, UPEC In our latest #MAGIC spotlight, see how his team is advancing #MuscularDystrophy therapies. 👉 magic-horizon.eu/news/meet-upec… #GeneTherapy








🔬 In the #MAGICproject, Prof. Karen English (Maynooth University) is tackling immune reactions to AAV gene therapies for muscular dystrophy. The goal: identify & calm early immune responses to boost safety & efficacy. 🔬 Full interview: magic-horizon.eu/news/meet-nuim… #GeneTherapy #AAV






Developing gene therapies for rare muscular dystrophies comes with big challenges: 🔬 Lack of realistic muscle models 🧫 Targeted delivery without triggering immune responses Mariam Zhouhair (The Francis Crick Institute) shares how the MAGIC project is tackling these. 🔗magic-horizon.eu/news/meet-cric…
