Eye diseases, aging, and plasticity

The publications from our laboratory include those on aging in the optic nerve and brain of the monkey, and retinal development and degeneration in the zebrafish. We also have several manuscripts in preparation or editorial revision that present recent results regarding cell survival after toxic destruction of photoreceptors, and the persistent expression of developmental markers such as nestin and CHX-10 in the human eye with retinitis pigmentosa. For a complete list of publications please see the individual pages for the members of the lab.
