Description

The lines of work defined in the preclinical advanced therapies area are structured around three areas: Cellular: Clinical trial: Tissue engineering: Biomaterials. Gene therapy. The purpose of these lines of work is to provide solutions to problems not solved by current advances in retinal pathologies. The outlined objectives are as follows: Development and improvement of experimental models (animal models, cell cultures and organotypical cultures) adapted to early prediction models and risk minimization. Research focused on the knowledge of pathogenic processes involved in some retinal pathologies in order to identify new risk biomarkers and new therapeutic targets. Development of observational and experimental studies.
