This edited book focuses on the recent advances in our
understanding of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), combining
epidemiology and clinical diagnosis, with genetics and
immunological aspects as well as the role of proteostasis and
mitochondria before diving into new therapies including stem cell
based approaches. AMD is a leading cause of largely incurable
blindness worldwide and projected to double from 2.07 million to
5.44 million individuals by 2050 in the United States. Globally,
288 million individuals are projected to have AMD by 2040. The
disease has enormous socioeconomic impact on the affected
individuals, their families and the society. This book will bring
together the state of the art basic science knowledge with
clinically relevant findings and address the challenges for future
research in AMD. The intersection of different disciplines will
provide potential areas for further investigations to reduce the
burden of blindness from AMD. This book offers an appealing and
insightful resource for clinicians, scientists, students and
fellows.
