Viral vectors are a tool commonly used by molecular biologists to deliver genetic material into cells. This process can be performed inside a living organism (in vivo) or in cell culture (in vitro). Though a number of viruses have been developed, interest has centered on four types: retrovirus, lentivirus, adenovirus and adeno-associated virus (AAV).
