Dr. Graeme Black, an internationally recognised authority on Genetic Ophthalmology, is Professor and Honorary Consultant of Genetics and Ophthalmology at the University of Manchester, England. Graeme’s major research focus is the molecular and phenotypic characterisation of inherited developmental disorders, aiming to improve diagnosis, management and treatment. He has >250 peer-reviewed publications. Graeme runs a busy supraregional clinical service and oversees the scientific team that provides accredited genomic testing for patients with ophthalmic disorders (2004-date). Concurrently, Graeme has held a number of key strategic clinical academic leadership positions (e.g Director, NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre (2009-12), Manchester Institute of Human Development (2012-15), Manchester Centre for Genomic Medicine and North West England Genomic Laboratory Hub (2015-2021). Dr. Jane Ashworth is a Consultant Pediatric Ophthalmologist at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital and Honorary Professor at the University of Manchester. She has a busy clinical and surgical paediatric ophthalmology practice, with regular multidisciplinary subspecialty clinics in pediatric cataract, ophthalmic genetics, pediatric uveitis and metabolic disease. Jane has a major role in teaching and training as Head of School of Ophthalmology in Health Education England North West. Dr. Panagiotis (Panos) Sergouniotis is a Senior Lecturer and Consultant in Genetic Ophthalmology at the University of Manchester. His research involves working at the intersection of genomics, bioinformatics and clinical ophthalmology and his contributions span the translational spectrum from basic biology to implementation science. Panos runs the supraregional pediatric ophthalmic genetic clinic specialising in genetic disorders of the retina.
