PEDIATRIC RETINAL RESEARCH LAB

The Pediatric Retinal Research Laboratory at Oakland University is the first laboratory of its kind solely dedicated to pediatric retinal diseases from basic science issues to the development of new therapies.

Funded through the generous contribution of the Clohset family, the “PRRL” (pronounced pearl) opened in 2011. The PRRL lab houses up to date genetic testing facilities, tissue culturing facilities, and animal procedure and imaging facilities as well as internet-based video conferencing to collaborate with other investigators around the world.
