William
R. Freeman, M.D.
Professor and Director of the Jacobs Retina Center
at the UCSD Shiley Eye Center
|
|
William R. Freeman, M.D. is an
internationally acclaimed scientific researcher and
Director of the Jacobs Retina Research Center, adjoining
the UCSD Shiley Eye Center. The clinical research center
at the Jacobs Center will enable patients to benefit
from the latest advances in diagnostic equipment and
therapies. Researchers working in the Center's laboratories
will focus on advancing promising therapies for macular
degeneration, tumors, inherited retinal disease, retinal
detachment, macular holes, and other important retinal
diseases.
Dr. Freeman is Professor
of Ophthalmology at UCSD and has built a clinical and research
enterprise of excellence since he came to UCSD in 1986.
The new Jacobs Retina Center has allowed him to continue
to build a research team dedicated to attacking retinal
diseases that cause blindness and vision loss.
The center includes a clinical
research center where new drugs and surgical and medical
therapies are used in patients with serious retinal problems.
This dedicated free standing center is immediately adjoining
the Shiley Eye center at UCSD and allows patients to benefit
from new resources not previously available. This is done
in a state of the art building and in an extremely comfortable
environment for the patients and their families.
The clinical research staff
includes Denie Cochran, director as well as Michelle Stittman,
Nicole Regan and other clinical trials coordinators who
help patients choose from and participate in a variety of
new treatments including those developed at UCSD and from
biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.
The research group is divided
into the modalities indicated below. Each research module,
is directed by a principal investigator, or two or more
co-investigators. These individuals work in the Jacobs Retina
Center and also collaborate with or run laboratories elsewhere
on the UCSD campus. They collaborate with the most innovative
biotechnology companies in San Diego. This web site highlights
these laboratories and individuals.
