Biography
I am a retina specialist dedicated to revolutionizing the diagnosis and treatment of retinal diseases. With a passionate focus on finding cures for inherited retinal conditions such as retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease, including gene therapy and stem cell replacement therapy.
I am committed to advancing diagnostic capabilities through innovative applications of machine learning and image processing techniques to enhance early detection and personalized treatment strategies for patients with retinal disorders.
I am director of the IRD fellowship at the Duke Eye Center and hope to train the next generation of IRD specialists.
