An amazing talk at the BRPS 2008 AGM by Dr Robin Ali on the fantastic results of the Gene Therapy clinical trials to treat Lebers Congenital Amaurosis (LCA - a form of Retinitis Pigmentosa affecting the young). Includes a video and talk by the trial patient whose vision has improved, Steven Howarth.

The hope continues and, one day, who knows, just maybe...
