As you get older, your eyes worsen and become susceptible to a disease called age-related macular degeneration -- the leading cause of blindness, with no cure in sight. Sharing the science of how your vision works, researcher Joshua Chu-Tan offers breakthrough insights on a lesser-known RNA that could change the treatment for this disease, preserving the gift of sight for longer and improving the quality of life for millions of people.

The science of preserving sight | Joshua Chu-Tan

A medida que nos hacemos mayores, nuestros ojos envejecen y se vuelven más susceptibles de padecer una enfermedad llamada "degeneración macular asociada a la edad", la causa más común de la ceguera, sin una cura a la vista. Compartiendo la ciencia detrás del funcionamiento de la vista, el investigador Joshua Chu-Tan presenta unos revolucionarios puntos clave sobre un ARN menos conocido que podría cambiar el tratamiento contra esta enfermedad, preservar el don de la vista durante más tiempo y mejorar la calidad de vida de millones de personas.

나이가 들면서, 여러분의 눈은 약해지고 노년 황반 변성이라고 부르는 질병에 걸리기 쉽습니다. 실명이 되는 주요 원인인데, 현재 치료법이 없습니다. 시력이 어떻게 작용하는지에 대한 과학을 공유하면서, 연구원 조슈아 추탄은 이 질병의 치료 방법을 바꿀 수 있는 덜 알려진 RNA에 대한 획기적인 통찰을 제공합니다. 이 RNA는 시력을 더 오래 보존하고, 수백만 명의 삶의 질을 향상할 수 있습니다.
