This project investigates the role of natural killer cells in age-related macular degeneration and other retinal diseases. By exploring their function and potential therapeutic applications, the project aims to develop new strategies for preventing and treating neovascular eye diseases.

The number of people with AMD has reached 196 million, with ~1 in 10 people over 55 years already showing early signs of the condition. 70% of those who progress to late-stage disease will develop neovascular (nv)AMD due to uncontrolled growth of blood vessels behind the retina.
