Associate Professor Paul Baird of the Centre for Eye Research Australia, University of Melbourne specialises in identifying and understanding how genetic changes are involved in causing the commonest causes of vision loss and blindness in our society including age related macular degeneration, short-sightedness and glaucoma. His Fellowship will be used to better understand how genes and environment cause these diseases, allowing translation of findings intto new and improved treatments for patients.

墨尔本大学澳大利亚眼科研究中心的副教授Paul Baird专门研究识别和理解基因变化是如何导致我们社会中最常见的视力丧失和失明的原因，包括与年龄相关的黄斑变性、近视和青光眼。他的奖学金将用于更好地了解基因和环境如何导致这些疾病，从而将研究结果转化为新的和改进的治疗方法。
