The UK’s cell and gene therapy sector stands at the forefront of groundbreaking medical advancements, yet it faces a significant skills gap that poses a challenge to its continued progress. In our latest article, Professor Qasim Rafiq reflects on progress of the Skills Strategy published in 2023 by the Innovation Hubs for Gene Therapies (IHfGT) to address this pressing issue. The strategy aims to cultivate a skilled workforce capable of driving the UK’s leadership in gene therapy. It underscores the collaborative approach required to train highly qualified personnel capable of supporting the UK’s aim to remain a leader in advanced therapies. Professor Rafiq highlights key messages from the launch event, including: · Integrating and aligning IHfGT’s training activity with existing schemes to amplify the sector’s capacity. · Educating the next generation of clinicians and pharmacists about the transformative potential of gene therapy. · Learning lessons from COVID-19 to build on policy and public awareness of biotherapeutic manufacture. · Establishing clear career paths to attract and retain talent. · Introducing bursaries to increase diversity and ease student and trainee access to the field.
