AboutAbout the lab
Aiming to treat intractable retinal diseases with advanced technology.
The Advanced Visual Medicine Endowed Lab aims to develop treatments for intractable retinal neurodegenerative diseases such as glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, and age-related macular degeneration.
Focusing on advanced technologies such as drug delivery systems, gene therapy, and stem cell medicine, the lab keeps the clinical application of these treatments in view.
In the lab's own introduction, glaucoma, neuroprotection, drug discovery, genetic analysis, and animal experiments are listed as keywords.
Key terms
