Christina Joselevitch graduated in Veterinary Medicine at the University of São Paulo in 1996. She then obtained a Master's Degree in Psychology (with emphasis in Neurosciences and Behavior) at the University of São Paulo in 1999 and a PhD in Medicine (with emphasis in Neurosciences) at the University of Amsterdam in 2005. She currently works as an assistant professor at the Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of São Paulo. Christina has extensive experience in the Neurosciences, mainly in the areas of cellular biophysics and the psychology of perceptual and motor processes. Her main interest is the study of cellular communication and signal codification in the retina, by means of electrophysiology, morphology and computational modeling. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Robert Gilpin Smith is Professor of the Department of Neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (USA). With extensive experience in the study of cellular communication in the retina, he has dedicated for over three decades to the study of synaptic communication in the nervous system, using the visual system as a model. In his laborator…

Retinopathy of prematurity is a developmental eye disease associated with abnormal retinal vascular growth. It occurs in infants that are born before the 32nd gestational week and that are subjected to long periods in incubators typically rich in oxygen. The disease has two phases: (1) a delayed pathologic retinal neovascularization, due to the hyperoxia induced by the incubator environme…
The goldfish is considered a good experimental model for vision research because it presents an intermediate condition between fish with an underdeveloped visual system and those in which vision is the dominant sense. The production, composition and outflow of the ocular media in this species, which are fundamental to image formation on the retina, are however poorly understood. This proj…
Acute retinal necrosis (NAR) is a very rapid and devastating viral retinitis. Acyclovir is the antiviral of choice for the treatment of NAR because it has good selectivity against its etiological agent. However, studies show that the concentration of acyclovir in the vitreous is very low after systemic use. The intravitreal injection maybe, therefore, be an alternative route of administra…
