Register for CRATER 2025 👉🏻 https://crater.icter.pl 🧬 We’re excited to welcome Amanda Carr as a speaker at CRATER 2025! Amanda-Jayne Carr is an Associate Professor and Principal Investigator at the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology, where her research focuses on the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) - a key player in both inherited and age-related retinal diseases. Her team develops patient-derived stem cell models to study mechanisms of disease and ageing in the RPE, shedding light on the molecular pathways that drive degeneration. These cutting-edge in vitro models are helping pave the way toward new treatment strategies for retinal conditions. 🎯 Don't want to miss her phenomenal speech?
