“There are no curative therapies for olfactory loss. My laboratory has championed the use of gene therapy to provide hope to those patients who can’t smell. Gene therapy means taking a lost gene or a defective gene and replacing it with a normal, healthy copy into these olfactory neurons.” —Jeffrey Martens, PhD, Professor of Pharmacology and Senior Associate Dean for Research
