Research
- My current research focuses on novel gene therapy strategies for wet
age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), a common eye disease in the elderly
population. The aim is to understand and alter the molecular mechanisms that
lead to progression of this blinding disease in preclinical models, with the
final goal to translate these novel therapy strategies into the clinical
environment.
