Angiogenesis Research Laboratory
Robert Chang, PhD, Director
Research Associate Professor
Research Interest:
Investigating the role of VEGFR-2 in corneal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis.
Ongoing Research:
Current investigations include examining the role of VEGFR-2 interference with VEGFR-3 dimerizations using Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) and determining the role VEGFR-2/-3 play in the regulation of corneal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis.
Impact:
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of corneal angiogenesis/ lymphangiogenesis will provide novel therapeutic intervention in the treatment of angiogenic/ lymphangiogenic-related disorders.
