Webinar: Inflammation and retinal degeneration in retinitis pigmentosa: Can lessons learned in the lab help us identify treatments in the clinic?

This webinar features Roly Megaw and was recorded on Thursday 23 September 2021. Roly does reference slides in his presentation but the content is easy to follow without the slides. Roly Megaw is a clinician scientist. He is a Wellcome Trust funded clinical lecturer at the MRC Human Genetics Unit at the University of Edinburgh and a consultant ophthalmologist in NHS Lothian. Roly undertook his PhD with Charles ffrench-Constant at the Scottish Centre for Regenerative medicine, using induced pluripotent stem cells to model x-linked retinitis pigmentosa, prior to undertaking his clinical fellowship with Graeme Black in Manchester. The webinar is also available on the Retina UK YouTube channel where it includes the slides: https://youtu.be/msbH6QseSBk. There are a number of webinars and online information evenings being held by Retina UK in the autumn of 2021. For more information, visit: https://retinauk.org.uk/info-events.
