I am currently a PhD student in the lab of Dr. Levi Todd. The lab studies retinal glia and their ability to protect and regenerate neurons. My current research focuses on understanding how aging impacts regenerative processes within the retina, aiming to find new ideas that could improve therapeutic strategies for age-related retinal degeneration.
