Changes in Neuro-Vascular Interactions in Type 1 Diabetes

May 1, 2014 to April 30, 2015
GRANT: 
Non-Federal
Funding Status: 
Completed Project
Funding Agency: 
Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

Goals

The novel hypothesis of this proposal is that neurovascular degradation in diabetes occurs as a reciprocal interaction between neurons and vasculature. This comprehensive approach will provide novel targets to repair or prevent retinal dysfunction, reducing the impact of DR.
