Basic Science Research
Overview
Research and innovation are an integral aspect of modern-day medicine allowing the scientists/clinician to scientifically design and test a hypothesis, recognize uncertainties, widen perspective, resolve dilemmas and understanding divergent options and explore strategic questions.
Who We Are
The mission of the Stem Cells Department is to excel in translational Research and Innovation. This centre focuses on fostering fundamental creative discoveries and innovative research strategies, protect and improve health and, at the same time, to promote the highest level of scientific integrity, accountability, and social responsibility in the conduct of research.
The research and innovation centre provides leadership and direction to program, design and ultimately to improve the health-care system.

Why SCEH
The innovative work held at this centre is in advancing our knowledge of i) corneal cell biology, regeneration and stem cell, ii) glaucoma (trabecular meshwork stem cell biology and stem cell-based therapeutics, and ocular biomechanics), iii) retinal and RPE development, degeneration and regeneration, iv) visual neuroscience, v) ocular infectious disease, ocular immunology, the ocular microbiome, vi) various aspects of ENT research and vii) community research. We focus on establishing a collegial, collaborative and productive group of researchers.
