Camille Fang

Junior Specialist

Camille is originally from the Bay Area and graduated from UC San Diego with B.S. degrees in Human Biology and Global Health. They are broadly interested in studying chronic neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative diseases and hopes to eventually attend medical school. Outside the lab, Camille enjoys spending time with family and friends, visiting coffee shops, and reading.

Dan Brown

Research Specialist

Dan is a California native who recently obtained his B.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology at San Francisco State University. Outside the lab, Dan has multiple interests, including reading, playing music, exercising, camping, and spending time with his friends and family. On the weekends he loves to go to Golden Gate Park or Green Apple Books.

Subramanian Dharmarajan

Senior Research Scientist

I moved to US from India having completed my bachelors in biotechnology. I received my Masters and Doctorate degree in Biology from Indiana University- Purdue University Indianapolis. I then moved to the University of Washington, Seattle to complete my postdoc and transition to a research scientist role in the department of Bioengineering. Outside the lab, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing soccer and going hiking.

Anbukkarasi Muniyandi

Senior Research Scientist

Anbu received her PhD in Animal Science with a specialization in Ophthalmology at Bharathidasan University, India. She then moved to Indiana University School of Medicine for postdoctoral research, where she studied angiogenic mechanisms of potential drug targets for neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Anbu joined the Ou lab in March 2024, where she intends to comprehend the mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration of retinal ganglion cells in glaucoma. When Anbu is not researching in the lab, she enjoys volunteering in community outreach and spending time in recreational sport activities.

Yvonne Ou

Professor in Residence, Dr. and Mrs. Stacy R. Mettier Jr. Endowed Chair in Ophthalmology

Vice Chair for Postgraduate Education, Department of Ophthalmology
B.A. Harvard College – Honors thesis in the lab of Dr. Guido Guidotti
M.D. Harvard Medical School – Honors thesis in the lab of Dr. Michael Gimbrone
Internship – Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA
Residency – Jules Stein Eye Institute/UCLA
Fellowship – Duke University, glaucoma
Postdoctoral fellowship – Duke University in the lab of Dr. Chay Kuo

Yvonne is a clinician-scientist interested in understanding the mechanisms underlying circuit disassembly in glaucoma, using a combination of anatomical, genetic, and electrophysiological tools. Her lab aims to move the field forward by advancing novel diagnostic and treatment paradigms, including optimum interventions targeted towards specific visual channels, and fundamentally expanding our knowledge of how adult neural circuits react and rearrange in the face of injury. Outside of the lab, she enjoys spending time with her children, baking, and hiking.
