个人简介
Lyndon da Cruz received the Ph.D. degree in retinal gene therapy from the University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia, in 1999.
He is currently a Consultant Retinal Surgeon and Head of Department of Vitreo-Retinal Surgery with Moorfields Eye Hospital, London, U.K.; a Professor of Retinal and Stem Cell Transplantation, University College London, London; and an Honorary Professor of Biomedical Engineering with King's College London, London. He received the NHMRC medical Scholarship for his Ph.D. research and the Royal Society Howard Florey Fellowship his postdoctoral research. He has worked in innovative research for the treatment of blinding retinal conditions since 1990, including implanting the first prosthetic retina (bionic eye) in Britain (2008) and the first-in-man delivery of a stem-cell-derived retinal pigment epithelial sheet for macular degeneration that he has codeveloped (2015). He cofounded The London Project, to create new stem cell treatments for blinding retinal conditions. The project realizes the need for large-scale multidisciplinary teams of stem cell scientists, surgeons, and engineers to solve the problems of tissue manufacture, understanding of disease treatment points and reliable delivery of the therapeutic element. He has established a robotic engineering group at King's College London with Dr. Christos Bergeles to create robotic delivery systems for novel biological treatments in the retina.
Dr. da Cruz was named the Menzies Scholar for Australia in 2000. He was the recipient of the Ruskell Medal by the Worshipful company of Spectacle Makers in 2018, the Alan Alderman Award from the Macular Disease Society in 2018, the Denuncio Medal from the Society of Ophthalmic Professors, Italy, in 2016, the Harold Ridley Medal from the Ridley Foundation in 2014, and the Gulstrand Medal from the Swedish National Ophthalmic Society in 2010.
