Funded Activity Summary

Biology has become data-driven, with a huge amount of data available but not enough researchers with bioinformatics skills to analyse it. By studying genetic architecture of eye cells generated from induced pluripotent stem cells of individuals with and without glaucoma, I aim to contribute to a better understanding of the underlying causes of glaucoma and equip myself with new bioinformatics skills to utilise in future eye research in Australia.
