How to Inject a Gene Into a Cell

The most successful methods are using viruses to introduce the genetic material. The success rate is a bit low so only one in, well it varies a lot by experiment but one in some number of cells might be one in 100 may be one in four if you're really lucky. We'll end up with a copy of this gene that you want to express. I don't know if anyone's doing this but with cancer care we were taking CAR T cells and harvesting cells from the patient and artificially just reproducing the ones that had the programmed instructions to kill cancer cells. So you'd put them back in the person and then there's a newer version where you take donor cells and do the same thing
