Jasenka Guduric-Fuchs is a Research Fellow at the Wellcome Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine, Queen's University Belfast. Her research focuses on microRNA regulation in endothelial cells, diabetic retinopathy pathogenesis, and vascular regeneration therapies. Key investigations include endothelial progenitor dysfunction in diabetes, epigenetic dysregulation in hyperglycemia, and pentraxin-mediated retinal inflammation. Develops stem cell-based approaches for ischemic retinopathies and studies extracellular vesicle signaling in age-related macular degeneration. Publications emphasize molecular mechanisms of vascular aging, microRNA control of angiogenesis, and translational applications for ocular diseases. Recent work identifies novel senescence signatures and explores NOX4 signaling restoration for diabetic vascular repair. Collaborates internationally on retinal vascular biology projects. Research contributes to therapeutic development for diabetic complications and retinal degenerative diseases.

Clinical Associate Professor Gerald Liew is affiliated with the University of Sydney’s Westmead Clinical School, specializing in Clinical Ophthalmology & Eye Health. His research focuses on diabetic retinopathy, cardiovascular diseases, macular degeneration, and clinical trials. He has supervised research student Tom Campbell and collaborates across disciplines to address vision and systemic health intersections. Research interests include retinal vascular changes, diabetic complications, and aging-related eye diseases. His work bridges ophthalmology with broader health systems, such as optimizing screening protocols and task-sharing models for diabetic eye care. He has contributed to multi-center studies on AI-driven diagnostic tools and risk factor analysis for vision impairment. Publications emphasize translational research, including clinical trial outcomes for therapies targeting macular degeneration and retinopathy. His studies often highlight epidemiological trends, such as disparities in disease prevalence across ethnic groups and the impact of lifestyle factors on eye health. Advising includes mentoring Tom Campbell’s project on diabetes-related health outcomes. While grants are not explicitly listed, his work implies involvement in funded projects. His clinical role integrates academic research with practical care, advocating for accessible and evidence-based eye health interventions.
