In our new episode of Scientists, Unedited, host Eirini Vamva, PhD welcomes Luigi Naldini, PhD, for a discussion on his story. Dr. Naldini reflects on the unexpected path that led him to gene therapy and helped him turn a bold scientific idea into a clinical reality. He discusses the risks, setbacks, collaborations, and family support that shaped his career, as well as the future of gene therapy and why meaningful scientific progress requires persistence, teamwork, and time.
