Kazlauskas Lab

The overall goal of the Kazlauskas Lab is to elucidate the effect of diabetes (DM) on the retinal vasculature. The resulting conceptual advances will guide development of new therapeutic approaches to prevent patients with DM from developing diabetic retinopathy (DR), and improve current options to treat patients who have already developed DR. Several areas of research in the Kazlauskas Lab are summarized below; please see our recent publications for additional information:
