PROMISING JUNIOR INVESTIGATOR WEI CAO, PH.D. Dr. Wei Cao was trained as an ophthalmologist in China and received a PhD from the University of Sherbrooke in Quebec, Canada. He had an outstanding postdoctoral research experience in the laboratories of Drs. Roy Steinberg (deceased) and Matthew LaVail at UCSF Department of Ophthalmology. He joined Dr. McGinnis' research group and continued to work in his area of expertise, the role of growth factors in retinal cell survival. In this COBRE application, he is proposing a new direction that will allow him to move into an area of research completely independent from that currently funded in the McGinnis laboratory. Dr. Cao has received funding from Knights Templar Eye Foundation, OU Medical Alumni Association, and Fight-for-Sight. COBRE Research Project |
