John Danias · Brooklyn, New York
Dr. John Danias's lab at SUNY Downstate Medical Center studies how changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) affect eye pressure and contribute to conditions like glaucoma. They focus on understanding how steroids can alter the ECM in the eye, leading to increased intraocular pressure, and aim to identify potential therapeutic strategies to reverse these effects. The lab combines advanced models and experimental techniques to explore these critical interactions, ultimately striving to improve treatments for glaucoma and related ocular conditions.
