Description of Clinical Expertise
I am a practicing Ophthalmologist trained in the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) and pediatric visual function.Description of Research Expertise
As an NIH K12 funded clinician-scientist, I am focused exclusively on visual function and retinal structure in pediatric IRDs with an aim to improve the outcome measure landscape and facilitate clinical development of gene and small molecule based therapies for these diseases.Selected Publications
