Gene and cell based therapies to counteract neuroretinal degeneration

Joined February 2020
Second day of our annual summer school. Our young scientists are developing new research ideas, forming collaborations and experiencing the first steps of grant writing! Thank you for having us in Dresden! – at Dresden, Germany

Congrats on the latest publication, @MoritzLindner2! 🥳
Surviving retinal circuity in advanced RP (rd1) can recreate a rich visual code after #optogenetic #genetherapy! Great to see our paper out! Rodgers et al., @CurrentBiology : authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…. Amazing work, Jess! @UniofOxford @Uni_MR @RobLucasDar @spp2127 @OfficialUoM

Marius #Ader from @CRTDpress @tudresden_de talks about incorporation, polarisation and maturation of #photoreceptors transplanted into models of retinal degeneration - fascinating research in cooperation with @mokarl @VBusskamp

After a long evening at the swinging poster session with great #networking and an interesting morning session on the role of #metabolism and #mitochondria in retinal diseases, we are starting into the last session of this #PotsdamMeeting2022 @ProRetinaDe

We stay in the topic of #AAVs in retinal #GeneTherapy but throw in some #CRISPRa-Cas9 as the (epi)genome editing approach. Thanks to Elvir #Becirovic @LMU_Muenchen for the introduction to this method! @ProRetinaDe #PotsdamMeeting2022

We all got to know the importance of viruses im our lives. Dominik #Fischer @UniofOxford @uktuebingen highlights another virus type - #AAVs - in retinal #GeneTherapy and the influence of the immune response in this treatment @ProRetinaDe #PotsdamMeeting2022
