Experimental Ophthalmology

DESCRIPTION

Research group of the Dept. of Ophthalmology, UNIGE & HUG

The group of experimental ophthalmology is a research and teaching center focused on optimizing the treatment of retinal diseases. We are interested in regenerative and personalized medicine and are developing Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMP) to treat neurodegenerative diseases of the eye by developing gene and cell therapeutic approaches. We are also working to reduce animal experimentation and are testing new biomaterials and drug delivery systems.
