Mariya is a world-class Clinician Scientist who has undertaken joint academic and clinical training in Ophthalmology through the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Integrated Academic Training Programme.
Mariya completed her Ophthalmology Specialist Training in the London Deanery. In 2011, she was awarded an NIHR Academic Clinical Lectureship at the NIHR Biomedical Research Centre at Moorfields Eye Hospital and UCL Institute of Ophthalmology, during which she established her own research group in the department of Ocular Biology and Therapeutics. In 2015, she became a Fellow of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists, and undertook her clinical fellowship at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in Paediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Retinal Genetics at Moorfields Eye Hospital.
Over the past 10 years, Mariya’s research has focused on investigating the molecular aetiology and disease mechanisms causing congenital eye anomalies and inherited retinal disease. She also has a strong focus on developing novel molecular therapies for genetic eye disease with clinical translation.
Lee is a Health Psychologist and Research Fellow based at the Institute of Ophthalmology at UCL. Lee also works as a Senior Scientist at the sight loss charity BRAVO VICTOR. His research focuses on understanding how people are affected by sight loss, including assessments of quality of life and designing new ways to measure the impact of vision impairment. Lee’s research addresses complex challenges associated with sight loss and aims to improve health and well-being outcomes across the community. During his post-doc, Lee and the team have set up a programme of research investigating the role of digital phenotyping in supporting patients with vision loss beyond the clinic. He is currently funded by a Zinc-UKRI Healthy Aging Catalyst Award to develop and test a smartphone application for digital phenotyping.
Kishan is a clinical optometrist and and an expert in digital eyecare. He has developed innovative ways to improve the delivery of resources and care to patients who suffer from eye disease using artificial intelligence techniques. As a developer and clinician he is in a great position to bridge the gap between eye health and digital innovation. He been featured in several publications including Optometry Today Magazine for the results he has achieved in this space
Bethany was awarded a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Nottingham where she discovered her interest in vision research and neuroimaging. She was subsequently awarded a scholarship to undertake an MRes at The University Nottingham in the department of Radiological Sciences. Her research focussed on the use of tensor imaging of paediatric tumours for visual outcome prediction. Bethany has now moved to London to join the Crabb Lab, where she is undertaking a PhD in Optometry and Visual Sciences. Bethany’s current research interests are Age-related Macular Degeneration and visual function measures such as dark adaptation.
