A forward genetics pipeline + fundus spot scale from @UfretLab, @HullemanLab, @Mutagenetix, & @UTSWOphth identified gene-phenotype associations with retinal degeneration. One takewaway? Lipe mutation is related to the accumulation of yellow fundus spots nature.com/articles/s42003-0…

February is AMD/Low Vision Month. In this MedBlog, Drs. @HullemanLab and Ufret-Vincenty explain the latest research developments behind promising treatment options for #AMD, which affects upwards of 11 million people in the U.S. utswmed.org/medblog/amd-stem…

So excited to share our recent @naturemethods manuscript with 3D-printed models of #AMD and the eye. This is what I call a disruptive technology. What an awesome job by our team @NatEyeInstitute and @ncats_nih_gov
NIH researchers @Kapilbharti123 used patient #stem cells and 3D bioprinting to create eye tissue. Technique provides model for studying #AMD and other eye diseases. @IRPatNIH @ncats_nih_gov. See bit.ly/3BRruAv

#NEIfunded researchers @Kapilbharti123 and @DavideOrtolan91 developed a map of RPE cells -- identifying subpopulations with relevance to disease vulnerability. A big advance for gene and stem therapies for degenerative diseases. #regenerativemedicine bit.ly/3siV1ys
