Excellent meeting last week in Nijmegen! Thanks a lot Susanne for the excellent organization and for serving as Chair of the ERDC for so many years! We are all very much indebted to you.

🧬 How can we navigate the genetic complexity of inherited retinal diseases? Our new paper in @ajhgnews.bsky.social presents RetiGene, a curated atlas of IRD genes, built with @erdc-team.bsky.social, to support diagnosis, research and therapy. 👉 bit.ly/467U1S9 #AcademicBlueSky #IRDs #VisionResearch

Happy to announce that the preprint about Retigene, our new gene atlas for inherited retinal diseases, is now on-line. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Big blue skies in Salt Lake City

@karkam.bsky.social (#1919) presented exciting discoveries on AP-5 disease at at #ARVO2025 This is a novel Lysosomal Macular Dystrophy and also defines a new RPE disease. Great collaboration of the ERDC www.erdc.info @carlorivolta.bsky.social #maculardystrophy #lysosomal #AP5 #RPEdisease

A great start to #ARVO2025 in Salt Lake City! We kicked off the week with the biannual meeting of the European Retinal Disease Consortium (ERDC) www.erdc.info 🧬 Collaboration drives progress - together, we are stronger 🧬 #ERDC #retinalresearch #collaboration #ARVO2025

New hope for inherited vision loss IOB researchers (@karkam.bsky.social, @carlorivolta.bsky.social, @mquinodoz.bsky.social, @abimoye.bsky.social) identify AP5Z1, AP5M1, AP5B1 mutations, revealing new causes of macular dystrophy. 🔗 www.cell.com/ajhg/fulltex... #AcademicBlueSky #Ophthalmology
