Pathophysiology and Technological Innovation in Vitreoretinal Surgery
The group’s research develops along two main lines. The first focuses on analyzing the anatomical and functional outcomes of surgery and optimizing surgical techniques. The second is dedicated to translational research, conducting “bench-to-bedside” studies on the vitreous and pathological retinal tissues using advanced morphological and molecular biology methods.
