Grant Activity:
Improving Diagnostics and Therapeutics for Corneal Blindness
Purpose:
Our research focuses on improving outcomes for patients undergoing sight-saving stem cell therapy. To achieve this we will find out where these cells are in the eye, how they are maintained, and how best to extract them in order to transplant them into diseased eyes using contact lenses. Knowledge gained from our animal studies will inform how to best prepare cells to successfully treat patients with corneal blindness.
