Retinal Gene Therapy

We aim at developing new treatment strategies for degenerative and neovascular retinal disorders. This includes in vitro as well as in vivo work using state of the art technologies.

Current Research Projects

  • Project 1:
    Characterization of a mouse model for XLRP
  • Project 2:
    Homology directed repair in retinal degeneration
  • Project 3:
    Transgenic anti-VEGF molecule expression in retinal neovascular disorders
  • Project 4:
    Rodent models of ROP
  • Project 5:
    Large animal models of retinal degeneration
