Vision Science

a human stem cell derived retinal organoid stained with antibodies for RECOVERIN (red, =photoreceptors) and AP2 (green, = amacrine cells). The lamination of the tissue and position of the cells is similar to a human retina.

Vision Science works with other research institutions to increase the potential of a cure, or improve treatment, for age-related macular degeneration and other blinding eye diseases.

Part of Medicine

a human stem cell derived retinal organoid stained with antibodies for RECOVERIN (red, =photoreceptors) and AP2 (green, = amacrine cells). The lamination of the tissue and position of the cells is similar to a human retina.

The Vision Science research group is interested in understanding the fundamental cause of blinding eye diseases and then translating these insights into treatments for patients.
