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.
