Abstract (English)	The project aims at creating novel lentiviral vectors for gene therapy, which will be integrated into the cell genome in a targeted, and not semi-random manner. This technology will eliminate the risk of oncogenesis, and greatly advance the safety of lentiviral-based gene therapy.
