Making sense of novel ocular neuroimmune interactions.

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

It is becoming clear that the interaction between corneal nerves and immune cells underpin many inflammatory conditions of the ocular surface. Despite this increased interest, very little is known about the relationship between corneal nerves and immune cells in this outermost layer of the eye. This project will investigate the relationship between corneal nerves and immune cells during health and corneal inflammation to identify therapeutic targets to treat corneal disease.
