Stem Cells in Focus webinars are intended for a non-scientific audience, though ISSCR members are welcome. Interested participants must have an account on ISSCR Connect. Public accounts are free, and you may set one up through the log in link below.
Join the ISSCR for a Stem Cells in Focus webinar entitled "Regenerative Medicine in the Eye: Retinal Degeneration - The Problem," an exploration of the new frontiers of regenerative medicine being applied to vision research.
Dr. Brian Ballios of the University of Toronto will discuss the variety of diseases that affect the visual function of the light-sensitive tissue of the eye - the retina - and the challenges they pose for our current approaches to therapy.
