A modeling perspective on retinal degeneration

Naoufel Cresson
(Sorbonne Université)
Abstract

This talk introduces an ongoing research project focused on building mechanistic models to study retinal degeneration, with a particular emphasis on the geometric aspects of the disease progression.

As we develop a computational model for retinal degeneration, we will explore how cellular materials behave and how wound-healing mechanisms influence disease progression. Finally, we’ll detail the numerical methods used to simulate these processes and explain how we work with medical data.

Ongoing research in collaboration with the group of M. Paques (Paris Eye Imaging - Quinze Vingts National Ophthalmology Hospital and Vision Institute).

With over 50 years as a club for staff, postgraduates, alumni, and retired staff, Cherwell Archers announces Beginner Sessions for Trinity Term.

Will you be within reasonable travelling distance to the Birmingham NEC in late June? If so, read on.

This year the IMA returns to the Big Bang Fair, which is the largest celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) for young people in the UK. This year it takes place on Tuesday 17-Thursday 19 June 2025 at the Birmingham NEC. The Fair’s aim is to show young people (aged 11-14) how many exciting and rewarding opportunities there are out there for them with the right experience and qualifications.
