Grant For Utah Cell Transplant Research
Research into a treatment for retinal degeneration at the University of Utah's John A. Moran Eye Center will continue thanks to a recent grant. The research, headed by Raymond D. Lund, involves transplanting cells producing chemicals that stop damage to nerve cells from the limbs to the retina. More about the treatment and the recent grant can be read in 'U. rat study gives boost to eye care' at Deseret News (16 July 2004) and in the media release 'Wynn Foundation grant funds further study of retinal cell transplantation at Utah's Moran Eye Center' at EurekAlert! (14 July 2004).
