Charles William Ryan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioI was born and raised in Syracuse, New York. I first attended Onondaga Community College, where I developed a fascination with the development of complex biological systems, and then transferred to Syracuse University where I completed my B.S. in biochemistry. I next attended the University of Michigan MD/PhD program, where I used in-vitro models of human neurodevelopment to study to role of epigenetic marks in guiding neurogenesis. While at Michigan, I became interested in the prospect of harnessing in-vitro differentiation to cultivate functional tissues that can be transplanted to replace what is lost in degenerative conditions. Ophthalmology, with its microsurgical access to functionally critical cell layers, is well-positioned to capitalize on this emerging field of science to treat degenerative conditions. I am humbled and incredibly thankful to have the opportunity to pursue this aim as a SOAR resident at Stanford.
