Overview

The Chan lab studies cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying corneal and ocular surface eye diseases. Our team of basic scientists, clinicians, and biostatisticians uses a basic and translational scientific approach to understanding extracellular signals in the corneal microenvironment and identifying biomarkers that are important in vision-threatening diseases including corneal scarring and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy. We aim to apply scientific discoveries to the understanding, prevention, and treatment of ocular diseases.
