    Research Focus: Retinal sheet transplantation and demonstration of vision restoration in rat models of retinal degeneration and ultimately in retinal degeneration patients.
    Detail on Research: My primary scientific interests are in retinal transplantation, retinal degeneration models, retinal development, stem cells and neurotrophic factors. Along with my late colleague, Dr. Robert Aramant, I have developed and refined a unique procedure of retinal sheet transplantation which has demonstrated improvement of visual responses in four different retinal degeneration models (RCS rats, rd mice, rhodopsin S334ter-3 and -5 rat models of fast and slow retinal degeneration). This lead to Phase I and II clinical trials that showed visual improvement in RP and AMD patients (published in 2008).
    I have assembled a team with expertise in studies of stem cells, retinal degeneration models, and visual testing. We have established that fetal- and stem cell-derived transplants of retinal sheets improve visual responses in the brain, partially restore optokinetic reflexes, and connect with the remaining host retina. The current focus of my research is on vision improvement, using transplants of retinal sheets derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs).
    This work has been supported by several grants from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) and by the National Institute of Health (NIH) in collaborations with Dr. Hans Keirstead (AIVITA Biomedical), Dr. Biju B. Thomas (USC); Dr. Maria Kenney (UCI), and Dr. Andrew Browne (UCI).
