The UNC Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM) invites you to join us for a full day symposium showcasing rising researchers whose work reflects the CMM mission and the rapidly expanding landscape of gene therapy and molecular medicine.

This program will feature early-career speakers—the next generation of scientists and translational thinkers—sharing fresh perspectives, emerging approaches, and the kinds of questions shaping the field right now. The full agenda and speaker lineup will be posted soon.

What to expect:

· Research talks aligned with CMM’s mission and translational focus

· A great opportunity to learn about the many faces of gene therapy and molecular medicine. Speakers will present work across different disease areas, technologies, and approaches, offering insight into how the field is evolving.

· Breakfast and lunch will be provided for registered attendees.
