    Associate Professor of Ophthalmology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research focuses on unraveling the molecular mechanisms underlying retinal development and diseases. We employ genetic and genomic tools to explore how various retinal cell types, including neurons, glia, and the vasculature, respond to developmental cues and disease insults at the epigenomic and transcriptional levels. In addition, we investigate their interactions and collective contributions to maintain retinal integrity.

    1. Investigating retinal development:
    We utilize genetic tools and methods such as in vivo plasmid electroporation and CRISPR to dissect the roles of cis-regulatory elements and transcription factors in controlling retinal development.

    2. Understanding diabetes-induced cell-type-specific responses in the retina:
    Diabetes triggers a range of multicellular responses in the retina, such as vascular lesions, glial dysfunction, and neurodegeneration, all of which contribute to retinopathy. We delve into the detailed molecular mechanisms underlying these diabetes-induced cell-type-specific responses and the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy.

    3. Developing molecular tools for labeling and manipulation of specific cell types in vivo:
    Cis-regulatory elements, particularly enhancers, play pivotal roles in directing tissue- and cell-type-specific expression. Our interest lies in identifying enhancers that can drive cell type-specific expression in the retina and brain. We incorporate these enhancers into plasmid or AAV-based delivery systems, enabling precise labeling and manipulation of specific cell types in vivo.

  • Tony Wang

    Tony Wang

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine

    BioTony Wang is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative, and Pain Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine. He is a board-certified anesthesiologist and intensivist with clinical expertise in critical care medicine and liver transplant anesthesiology.

    Dr. Wang completed his medical school training, anesthesiology residency, and critical care fellowship at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Dr. Wang is deeply committed to medical education and academic innovation. He serves as the Associate Program Director for the Liver Transplant Anesthesiology Fellowship and is the founding director of Stanford's Anesthesiology Critical Care Education for Leaders (ACCEL) program. He is also Director of Residency Engagement for WikiAnesthesia, a comprehensive digital platform designed to serve as an open-access repository of anesthesia knowledge for trainees and practitioners.

    Prior to medicine, Dr. Wang worked as a software engineer at Epic Systems, where he developed an appreciation for the intersection of technology and healthcare delivery.

    His clinical interests include the perioperative management of complex patients, liver transplant anesthesiology, critical care medicine, and the integration of technology into anesthesiology education.
