A treatment that targets dysfunctional photoreceptors regardless of the underlying genetic mutation leads to improved ...

Wenzhou Medical University and collaborating institutions have identified a population of human neural retinal stem-like cells able to regenerate retinal tissue and support visual recovery. Vision ...

Degeneration of retinal ganglion cells can cause irreversible vision loss. Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) could, in theory, be ...

A hybrid retinal implant using stem-cell-derived neurons and microelectrodes lowers activation thresholds and improves signal precision, offering a more natural interface for high-resolution vision ...

Researchers at the University of Bristol, together with collaborators at London’s Global University Institute of Ophthalmology, and the University of Bristol spin-out Cirrus Therapeutics, have ...

New research suggests a path forward that could change the lives of millions around the world. It may lead to a breakthrough for people who are losing vision due to retinal damage and conditions like ...

During retinal development, Setd8 safeguards chromatin accessibility through the histone marker H4K20me1. When Setd8 is present (right), genes required for retinal progenitor cell maintenance and DNA ...

The retina is a thin layer of neural tissue at the back of the eye that detects light and converts it into signals, sent to the brain. During development, all the specialized neurons in the ...

Scientists at the Jules Stein Eye Institute at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA have discovered that certain retinal cells can rewire themselves when vision begins to deteriorate in ...

Edward Kang’s RetinaMind analyzes patients’ retinal images and accurately diagnoses neurodevelopmental disorders 89 percent ...
