Bioinformatics – the application of computer technologies to study the genome 10 21.4 Genomics and Gene Therapy How can we modify a person’s genome? • Gene therapy – insertion of genetic material into human cells to treat a disorder – – • In _______ therapy, cells are removed from the body for treatment, and then reintroduced back into the body. In _______ therapy, the vector is introduced directly into the body. Gene therapy has been most successful in treating cancer. 11 21.4 Genomics and Gene Therapy Gene therapy Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
