Macular Disease Foundation Australia (MDFA) has launched its new Research Impact Report, which showcases the groundbreaking projects our organisation has funded to help reduce the impact of macular disease.
A/Prof Gerald Liew’s second MDFA Research Grant is allowing him to investigate a potential sight-saving supplement to improve dysfunctional mitochondria and prevent age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
If you have AMD, you could help this MDFA-funded study.
Results have now been presented at medical conferences in the USA.
Apellis announces initial results from two phase III studies in geographic atrophy.
MDFA funded researcher Ms Diana Tang is rolling out the Movement, Interaction and Nutrition for Greater Lifestyles in the Elderly – or MINGLE – program.
MDFA funded researcher, Dr Anai Gonzalez Cordero is creating an organoid – essentially a mini organ in a dish – with a macular structure.
MDFA has awarded more than $1 million in research funding to eight promising projects, in the search for a cure for macular diseases.
Celebrating the 10th anniversary of MDFA’s Research Grants Program, this free publication introduces you to the talented researchers your donations have funded since 2011.
Faye Grant included MDFA in her Will. Her bequest is now funding vital, innovative research into macular disease through the Grant Family Fund.
A new chemical compound could become a future tool against retinal vascular disease. The finding is the result of a pre-clinical study, led by UNSW researchers.
