| Research Abstract |
Vision is critical to our lives. To elucidate molecular mechanisms underlying development of retinal photoreceptor cells is not only important for biology but also for development of diagnosis and treatment of retinal diseases. We studied mechanisms of retinal photoreceptor development mainly by using mouse genetics. We progressed our understanding on molecular mechanisms underlying retinal stem cell proliferation, differentiation and maintenance of photoreceptor cells, function and related human diseases of bipolar cells.
