15 fully-funded MSCA PhD positions in Advanced Glaucoma Research in the Netherlands, Norway, Germany or France!
Glaucoma is an age-related neurodegenerative eye disease. Despite efforts of the early detection and treatment of glaucoma, ~15% of all patients in the EU still become bilaterally blind. Read more
Differentiating Myopia From Glaucoma: Shortening The Diagnostic Pathway For Long Eyes With Novel Tests Of Visual Function
Research Group:
Biomedical Sciences
Glaucoma is the primary cause of permanent vision loss worldwide. It affects the retinal cells that transmit visual information to the brain (retinal ganglion cells, RGCs) by putting them under stress, so they no longer work effectively (i.e., they are dysfunctional or ‘sick’). Read more
Reaction time as a metric of selective ON or OFF sensitivity loss in glaucoma
Research Group:
Biomedical Sciences
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the developed world and is characterised by loss of visual sensitivity at locations across the field of vision, eventually leading to blindness if uncontrolled. Read more
An investigation of the influence of life-long metabolic factors that contribute to age-related eye diseases
Primary open-angle glaucoma is a major source of disability and blindness. Genetic studies have been hugely successful in improving our understanding of this disease, but the mechanisms through which, in interaction with non-genetic factors, they can lead to glaucoma is not well understood.
