Research Pathways

Bringing gene and cell therapies from the lab bench to patients is a complex process and multiple pathways exists. The Research Pathways directory contains resources to help various stakeholders interested in therapy development navigate this process. Research Pathways is centred around the legal and regulatory aspects for cell and gene therapy development in Europe and further expanded to additional aspects. It is free to use and all resources in this database are categorised for improved searchability.
