Our Research Focus

We use retinal disease as a model to study how clinical expertise can be scaled through data, evidence, and system design.

Clinical systems design

Designing scalable models of care, including teleophthalmology and clinical pathways.

Evidence synthesis and guidelines

From data to clinically actionable knowledge through rigorous analysis and synthesis.

AI in clinical workflows

Integrating AI into clinical decision-making and operational systems.

Real-world data and registries

Using large-scale data to understand disease, outcomes, and system performance.
