Hope in sight: Annual Review 2019

The theme of our 2019 Annual Review is Hope in sight. This reflects our optimism that despite the traumatic events of 2020 – the catastrophic Australian bushfires and the COVID-19 pandemic – our research can make life better for people experiencing vision loss and blindness.

Inside, you’ll learn about some of the advances our researchers are making – from gene and cell therapies, to artificial intelligence tools and beyond. And how the support of individual donors, philanthropic trusts and foundations allows our scientists to conduct vision research with real-life impact.
