Sorry Royal and Listers - the "thanks for the link" apparently said it all. Try http://www.abstracts2view.com/asgct/view.php?nu=ASGCT13L1_40

TSD is a neurological disease and heretofore seemed insulated from treatment because of the blood brain barrier. At the 5/15/2013 meeting of the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy Dr. Douglas Martin (Auburn) formally reported the successful treatment of Tay-Sachs affected Jacobs, the first successful treatment of this disease and by gene therapy. You can find the complete report at the web site for the ASGCT meeting. Regards - Fred Horak
