Department of Health Call for Expressions of Interest 'GMP Gene Therapy Vector Production'

The June 2003 "Genetics" White Paper announced an investment of up to £4 million to provide NHS and other public sector researchers with access to GMP gene therapy vector production facilities. Earlier this year the Department of Health invited a second call for expressions of interest for support under this commitment. The closing date was Monday 2 April 2007.

Department of Health Gene Therapy Research Programme

The Department of Health has created a series of web pages to provide information to applicants, both future and current, about the Department of Health Research Programme in Gene Therapy and genetic research: www.genres.org.uk/gtrp/home.htm

In 2004, the Department of Health announced the recipients of the government's funding for gene therapy. The principle investigators summarised their proposals for BSGT and the Department of Health has provided further information.
