Dr. Kevin Chuen Wing Chan is an Associate Professor of Ophthalmology and the Director of the Neuroimaging and Visual Science Laboratory at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Chan's laboratory focuses on developing and applying new, non-invasive methods for imaging neurodegeneration, neurodevelopment, neuroprotection, neuroplasticity, and neuroregeneration in vision-related diseases and injuries to guide vision preservation and restoration. He has over 15 years of experience in structural, metabolic, physiological, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) research on the eye and brain of human and animal models of glaucoma and other visual impairments. Dr. Chan's team combines the use of optical coherence tomography, MRI, neuromodulation, and psychophysical assessments to determine the processes underlying the interplay among eye, brain, and behavior in health and disease. The laboratory focuses on developing and applying new methods for noninvasive imaging of neurodegeneration, neurodevelopment, neuroplasticity, and neuroregeneration in people with vision-related diseases and injuries. They study the structural, metabolic, physiological, and functional relationships between the eyes, brain, and behavior in health and disease, with the mission to improve vision preservation and restoration.
