Avigail Beryozkin PhD

Avigail Beryozkin, PhD, is a molecular geneticist and vision scientist whose research integrates human genetics, retinal neurobiology, and translational medicine. Her work focuses on uncovering the molecular mechanisms underlying inherited retinal diseases and retinal aging by combining clinical genetics, computational biology, and experimental models. She applies multimodal phenotyping, including retinal imaging, immunohistochemistry, and electrophysiological techniques such as electroretinography (ERG), to investigate retinal structure-function relationships and evaluate disease progression and therapeutic interventions. Her research bridges molecular genetics with retinal phenotyping, integrating clinical genetics, computational analyses, retinal electrophysiology, and experimental models to understand disease mechanisms and accelerate the development of precision therapies.
