Jan Kremers

Dr. Jan Kremers is Professor for experimental Ophthalmology and Head of research group Retinal Physiology of Glaucoma at the Deptartment of Ophthalmology, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany.

Short CV

1989 - 1992Post Doctoral fellow; Max Planck Institute for biophysical Chemistry, Göttingen, Germany
1992 - 1999Scientific employee; head of the retinal physiology lab; University of Tübingen Eye Hospital
1999 - 2003Heisenberg fellow; German Research Council, Bonn, Germany
2003 - 2005Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research, Basel, Switzerland and Strasbourg; France
since 2005Professor for experimental Ophthalmology; Dept. of Ophthalmology, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg,

Scientifc Interest

The visual processing in the healthy and diseased retina and the consequences for visual perception. It is the aim to understand the changes in the visual processing when a retinal disorder is present so that better treatments can be developed and the effects of treatments can be monitored
