Developmental wave of programmed ganglion cell death in human retinal organoids https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.07.25.666895v1

Using patient-derived optic #organoids and #multiomics analysis, researchers discovered a new role for #PAX6 in regulating SOX2 and Notch signaling during early eye development, offering mechanistic insight into PAX6-related ocular disorders. doi.org/10.1016/j.bb... #devbio 🧪

Using hiPSC retinal #organoids, @cumedicalschool.bsky.social researchers discovered a critical checkpoint in early eye development marked by a wave of retinal ganglion cell death. These findings could guide research into congenital eye disorders & human retinal disease models. 👁️ #ophthosky 🧪

Happy to share a new pre-print from the lab. Here we use human stem cell models to explore how microglia modulate retinal ganglion cells in developmental and neuroinflammation, both directly and in concert with astrocytes. Amazing work from PhD student Jade Harkin! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Are you aware of any assistant professor or associate researcher positions focusing on retinal regeneration, stem cell and glaucoma research here in Toronto accepting applications starting fall 2026? #academicjobs #newPI #Academia #stemcells #organoids #blindness #visionresearch
