Supporting progress & translation of gene & cell therapies
The aim of the British Society for Gene and Cell Therapy is to support scientific progress and promote ethical and efficient translation of gene- and cell-based technologies from the laboratory into the clinic.

The British Society for Gene and Cell Therapy (BSGCT) serves as a collaborative platform to advance Gene and Cell Therapy (GCT) in the UK.
We proactively foster cooperation among stakeholders, including the public, patients, scientists, companies, government, and media to support the optimal development of GCT technologies and therapies.
Our charity is managed by volunteer members via an Elected-Board and Sub-Committees. We rely on the crucial support of our sponsors and members and invite you to get involved.
