Integrated RP2 Research
Multidisciplinary Research
InsightRP2 Project
InsightRP2 is a multidisciplinary research project at the Department of Human Genetics of the University Medical Center Göttingen that focuses on a rare form of the inherited retinal disease retinitis pigmentosa (RP) caused by mutations in the RP2 gene. Its goal is to better understand the disease mechanisms underlying RP2-associated RP and to pave the way for future gene-based therapies.
