Neuroscience and ageing
Mae'r cynnwys hwn ar gael yn Saesneg yn unig.
Age-related eye disease accounts for more than 70% of all vision loss in the UK, with macular disease being the leading cause.
Our research provides an ideal platform for the development of new and improved methods for the detection and management of visual problems relating to the nervous system and ageing.
Our research is enhanced by strong links with the Neuroscience and Mental Health Research Institute, the Dementia Research Institute (DRI), and the Cardiff University Brain Imaging Research Centre (CUBRIC).
