The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus will receive up to $46 million from the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) Transplantation of Human Eye Allografts (THEA) program to advance pioneering research aimed at curing total blindness through human eye transplantation.
The award will support the work of the Total Human Eye-allotransplantation Innovation Advancement (THEIA) project team led by CU.
The project is led by principal investigator and surgeon-scientist Kia Washington, MD, and co-principal investigator Christene A. Huang, PhD, transplant immunologist. Both are professors at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and are nationally recognized leaders in plastic and reconstruction surgery, transplant surgery and immunology.
