Abstract / short description:
Gene therapy of the retina is a novel tool for the treatment of inherited retinal degenerations. Preclinical studies from several groups world-wide including our own clearly show the promise of this approach to provide a cure for this potentially blinding group of diseases. A key, seminal part of the treatment is the subretinal injection. However, there is to our best knowledge no comprehensive data on presumably influential parameters. In this project, we explore options to improve the treatment procedure.
