A New Path Begins: CGT at the Edge of Light and Change

🌞 Solstice Signals: Turning Points in Time and Medicine

Across the globe, the solstice has long marked a powerful transition — whether into the light or into reflection. From ancient observatories carved in stone to rituals aligned with the sun’s highest or lowest arc, this celestial event has inspired civilizations for millennia. It symbolized change, renewal, and the beginning of a new path.

In Cell and Gene Therapy, we find ourselves at a similar threshold. What began with the mapping of the human genome is now unfolding into real-world treatments — including the FDA’s recent approval of Casgevy, the first in vivo CRISPR-based gene editing therapy for sickle cell disease and beta-thalassemia.

Whether it's the promise of base editing, the evolution of AAV vectors, or the drive to make therapies more precise and accessible, the momentum we see today has been centuries in the making — and it’s only just beginning. In this edition, we illuminate how strategic innovation is transforming delivery, manufacturing, and possibility itself.
