Adeno-associated virus particle, illustration

---

Illustration of an adeno-associated virus (AAV) particle. AAVs are small, non-enveloped viruses. They are considered non-pathogenic, meaning they do not cause any known diseases in humans. AAVs have been studied extensively for their potential use in gene therapy, a medical technique that involves introducing new genes into a patient's cells to treat or prevent diseases.
