Biography

Serge Picaud has expertise in Retinal Physiology and Physiopathology. He has characterized retinal cell function at the cellular and molecular levels while developing different cell, tissue and animal models of retinal diseases such as purified photoreceptors and purified RGCs or even human postmortem retinal explants. His team has contributed to the understanding of different mechanisms leading to photoreceptor and RGC death. The present study on taurine deficiency has emerged following fundamental studies on GABA retinal function because the antiepileptic drug, Vigabtrin, is a blocker of the GABA-transaminase. Recently, his interest on Translational Research has moved to the development of devices for restoring vision in blind patients.
