Biographies
Katarina Stingl, MD is ophthalmologist and head of the Center for Rare Eye Diseases and the Clinical Unit for Inherited Retinal Degenerations at the Center for Ophthalmology, University of Tübingen.
Katarina Stingl is specialized in the clinical and genetic diagnostics of rare retinal diseases and its clinical research. She works on more than 15 clinical trials for Inherited Retinal Diseases as PI or Co-PI and has years of experience not only in genetic therapies of the retina, but also in electrophysiology, multimodal retinal diagnostics, visual implants, pharmacotherapy and electrostimulation.
Pr Artur Cideciyan
Krunoslav Stingl, PhD is an expert in retinal functional diagnostics and head of the Research Lab for multimodal retinal imaging at the Center for Ophthalmology, University Tübingen.
With focus on multimodal retinal diagnostics in ophthalmology including electrophysiology, retinal imaging, retinal functional evaluations, and metabolic imaging, the clinical research lab is working on improvement clinical testing strategies and clinical trial endpoints. Krunoslav Stingl has developed retinal functional testing protocols specifically tailored for genetic therapies of inherited retinal degenerations and his research brings together the structural, functional and metabolic aspects of human retinal function.
