Description

The eye is the organ of our most precious sense. Learn about its structure and how it changes in degenerative diseases. What are retinal organoids or induced pluripotent stem cells and how can they help researchers to understand diseases and develop therapies? What challenges do blind people face? Come in and challenge yourself in our darkroom experience. Explore the eye and learn how complex of an organ it is with the walk-in eye model. But most of all, talk to our scientists and learn more about our research.
