To quote Dr. Hofland: "From current CDAs, to past CDAs who are now leaders in the field, RPB CDAs are advancing vision science and saving sight in countless ways!" - we couldn't agree more.

"I'm excited that this proposal stemmed from my K08 clinician-scientist training grant to develop 3D models of the optic nerve. Getting an R01 funded by the NIH is external validation that the work we are doing is important and timely.”

“I am a clinician-scientist and surgeon, and I take care of glaucoma patients. I'm convinced that this grant will help us investigate key questions in glaucoma that will help patients maintain vision."

"I'm particularly heartened to receive this funding in the current climate. We hope that this NIH investment will lead us to find out what drives optic nerve sensitivity to IOP, so we can target that system to keep the optic nerve healthy even if IOP is elevated."
