Christian Runge

Christian Runge is a researcher affiliated with the Department of Ophthalmology at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. His work focuses on experimental ophthalmology and glaucoma research, with a particular emphasis on the physiological roles of cysteinyl leukotriene receptors and their implications in retinal health and surgical outcomes.

• Active in Glaucoma and Open Angle Glaucoma research
• Expertise in Cataract Surgery and Trabeculectomy techniques
• Investigation of Drug Therapy and Cell Activity mechanisms

Runge's recent publications highlight his contributions to understanding the role of cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 in retinal immune regulation and surgical innovations for glaucoma treatment. His research often integrates molecular biology, neurochemistry, and clinical ophthalmology.

• 2025 study on retinal immune cells in aged mice
• 2024 analysis of transscleral glaucoma stent efficacy
• 2023 work on endosomal-lysosomal regulation in retinal cells
