Retinal degeneration represents a group of blinding diseases that are increasingly impacting the health and well being of Californians. It is estimated that by 2020, over 450,000 Californians will suffer…
It is estimated that by 2020, over 450,000 Californians will suffer from vision loss or blindness due to the age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the most common cause of retinal degeneration…
Age-related macular degeneration is a progressive disease resulting in death of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) causing distortion to central vision and eventually to legal blindness. Regenerative Patch Technologies and…
Research Objective This proposal will develop a cell-based therapy that can restore vision in retinal degeneration associated blindness such as Stargardt disease and age-related macular degeneration. Impact Chemically induced method…
