Dr. Magali Saint-Geniez, PhD, is an Investigator working in the D’Amore lab. Before joining the Schepens Eye Research Institute, Dr. Saint-Geniez trained as a graduate student with Dr. Yves Audigier at the INSERM U397 in Toulouse, France. There, she developed her passion for vascular biology, focusing more specifically on eye development and pathologies. Today, her current research interests are concentrated on the role of VEGF in the development and survival of the choroidal vessels. She is also investigating the non-vascular functions of VEGF in the eye, on lens development and survival of adult retinal neurons. Finally, she is characterizing the phenotype of a transgenic mice generated by the D’Amore Lab which features are similar to age-dependent macular degeneration.
