Jia-Horung Hung, MD, PhD
Clinical Instructor, Ophthalmology
BioDr. Hung is a fellowship-trained ophthalmologist, practicing at the Byers Eye Institute, and also a clinical instructor in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Hung specializes in diagnosing and treating ocular inflammatory diseases, such as uveitis, iridocyclitis, and scleritis, as well as retinal vascular diseases, including age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
Dr. Hung’s research interests include ocular inflammation, infections, hereditary ocular inflammatory diseases, and novel approaches in managing ocular inflammatory diseases. His research has advanced screening, diagnostics, and treatment for patients with uveitis, lens disorders, retinal diseases, glaucoma, and rare ocular conditions. Dr. Hung’s most recent research explores the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the identification of ocular inflammatory diseases.
Dr. Hung has published his work in major national and international peer-reviewed journals, including American Journal of Ophthalmology, British Journal of Ophthalmology, RETINA, Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, and Survey of Ophthalmology. He has presented at national and international conferences on the use of technology in uveitis management.
Dr. Hung is a member of many professional organizations, including the American Society of Retina Specialists, the International Ocular Inflammation Society, the Foster Ocular Immunology Society, and the European Society of Retina Specialists. -
Michael S. Kapiloff, MD, PhD
Reinhard Family Professor, Professor (Research) of Ophthalmology and, by courtesy, of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Michael S. Kapiloff is a faculty member in the Departments of Ophthalmology and Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and a member of the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute. Although Dr. Kapiloff was at one time a Board-Certified General Pediatrician, he is currently involved in full-time basic science and translational research. His laboratory studies the basic molecular mechanisms underlying the response of the retinal ganglion cell and cardiac myocyte to disease. The longstanding interest of his laboratory is the role in intracellular signal transduction of multimolecular complexes organized by scaffold proteins. Recently, his lab has also been involved in the translation of these concepts into new therapies, including the development of new AAV gene therapy biologics for the prevention and treatment of heart failure and for neuroprotection in the eye.
