Talk:Adeno-Associated Viruses as Gene Therapy Vectors

I think this topic is not only interesting, but medically very exciting. I think this treatment has potential.
One thing I feel that you should incorporate more into your paper is the life cycle and replication of Adeno-Associated Viruses. This is critical for a thorough understanding of how the vectors are incorporated into host DNA.
A structural feature of your paper that I thought was excellent is the division of therapeutic applications. You cover treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, cycstic fibrosis, and parkinson's disease. This shows that gene therapy vectors could be used to battle such serious and relatively common diseases.
