Above undated message substituted from

Clarifying some things in the intro such as mentioning genetic material instead of just DNA. Also mentioning that not all foreign genetic material needs to be integrated into the genome, there are other methods where it replicates independently.

I will be focusing on the expansion of this stub. The header will be expanded to encompass the importance of gene delivery in several fields and a fuller summary of its basic definition. Include brief links to and explanations of viral and non-viral methods in header but move the listing of the various techniques of each to a new section which will be second, Methods which will have sub-sections of viral and non-viral methods that include a fuller summary of mechanism and touch on future advances in each area. First section after table of contents will be Key steps for gene delivery that will include basic principles required to successfully complete the process that that makes it a term which encompasses the various different forms of viral and non-viral transfection. My third section will be Applications which expands current and future uses of gene delivery. Possible goals include providing informative graphics for viral and non-viral methods as well as a Ethical implications which will touch on effects and possible concerns around gene delivery outside of genetics.

Any suggested references that would improve the quality of this article are appreciated. I intend to focus on textbooks and academic reviews for my references and will add to the following list of intended references as I continue.
