Biography

Over 10 years, I’ve helped coordinate clinical trials and imaging research at the Eye Institute for age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, retinal vein occlusion, retinitis pigmentosa, Stargardt disease, Usher syndrome, albinism, and achromatopsia, among others. I am especially interested in contributing to research in inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs) for which there are minimal or no current treatment options available.
