The research project of Dr. Edouard Baulier, a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Debora Farber’s UCLA laboratory, is designed to find a treatment for Ocular Albinism type 1 (OA1) by using two recently discovered biology tools: induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and CRISPR/Cas9, a gene-editing tool.

The Vision of Children Foundation is excited to share this update from our team of researchers led by M. Vittoria Schiaffino, MD, PhD at San Raffaele Scientific Institute in Milan, Italy!
