Huge congratulations to Profs Robin Ali and James Bainbridge on winning one of the most prestigious awards in vision science. We are extremely proud to have contributed funding to their gene therapy studies, and with your support we can continue to fund world class research.
Congratulations Robin Ali and James Bainbridge for winning the @ChampalimaudF Vision Award for research into inherited blindness, opening the way to further novel treatments for genetic conditions @UCLeye @Moorfields @OfficialNIHR WELL DONE to them and their team!
Congratulations to Professor's Robin Ali @ucl @UCLBrainScience and James Bainbridge @moorfields @Moorfields_pvt who yesterday were among 7 people recognised by @ChampalimaudF for the breakthrough development of RPE65 #GeneTherapy for LCA2 (@OfficialNIHR; @The_MRC; @MoorfieldsBRC – at Lisbon, Portugal
