Description:

This book contains the proceedings of the IX International Symposium on Retinal Degeneration held October 9-14, 2000, in Durango, Colorado. A majority of those who spoke and presented posters at the meeting contributed to this volume. The chapters reflect a major emphasis on molecular genetics of retinal degenerations, particularly in the areas of candidate genes and in cloning and mapping. Significant new animal models are described, as are several studies on macular degeneration. Studies on animal models, both vertebrate and invertebrate, continue to provide important new findings on the mechanisms of photoreceptor degeneration and cell death, as well as the means to retard, prevent, or…
