AbstractFor almost two years Dr Sham and her proteges have been conducting painstaking experiments on just part of one gene cluster in a set of four that was discovered about a decades ago -- in fruit flies. Yet the ultimate goal is nothing less than to be able to detect defective, disease-causing human genes, then repair or replace them.
