- Additional information
- This paper is the first to explore the link between optical and mechanical properties of the eye through in vitro measurements, which can be used in the design of implant lenses and investigating non-biological causes of pathological processes in the lens. This research led to research collaborations with the University of Antwerp, University of Bern, University of Zaragoza, Spanish National Research Council, Wroclaw University of Science of Technology and AMO Groningen BV. This collaboration formed the basis of a successful grant application for the MSCA Innovative Training Network “Opto-Biomechanical Eye Research Network – OBERON” (proposal number: 956720, 3.88M Euro).
