TECHNOLOGY

We employ state-of-the-art technologies to answer research questions

01.
EMR Data

Our team are experts at analysis of  electronic medical records in ophthalmology, with several publications on different retinal conditions

02.
AI

We use artificial intelligence for prediction of patient outcomes and automation of clinical and research tasks.

03.
Genetic Analysis

From genome-wide association studies to polygenic risk scores, our team is skilled at analsis of vast genomic information.

04.
Clinical Trials

We have experience conducting clinical trials, collaborating with pharma companies and reading centres. We were the first group to conduct a synthetic clinical trial in ophthalmology!

05.
Advanced Histopathology

We translate research into clinically relevant histopathological assays to discover previously unknown biological pathways.  

06.
Models of Disease

We have access to a number of “disease in a dish” models that replicate key human diseases that we use for phase 0 clinical trials and hypothesis testing.

Our Purpose

Ophthalmology + data science + basic science
= breakthroughs

We believe the whole is greater than the sum of its parts

That’s why we combine different scientific methodologies and teams from different disciplines to develop the best solutions to the most pressing problems in medical retina.
