Researchers are utilizing the natural ability of certain viruses to deliver genetic material into cells, a characteristic known as viral transduction. By harnessing this mechanism, scientists aim to modify or correct genetic defects by introducing healthy copies of genes or editing existing ones through techniques like CRISPR. This approach holds potential for treating genetic disorders by effectively targeting and altering defective genes at the cellular level.
