Raymond Wong
Dr Raymond CB Wong, Ph.D. is a Principal Investigator at the Centre for Eye Research Australia (CERA), the University of Melbourne in Australia and a Guest Professor at Shenzhen Eye Hospital in China. He is a stem cell biologist with 16 years of research experience, specialising in cellular reprogramming, pluripotent stem cells and neural/retinal differentiation. Dr Wong completed his PhD in stem cell biology at Monash University and was awarded a California Institute of Regenerative Medicine fellowship to pursue overseas postdoctoral training in University of California Irvine (USA), and a Visiting Fellow Award to train in National Institutes of Health (USA). In 2013, Dr Wong joined CERA with the support of a Cranborne Foundation Fellowship and subsequently established the Cellular Reprogramming Unit with the support of a MAWA Fellowship. Currently Dr Wong’s research focuses on understanding the genetic signals that define retinal cells, and using cell reprogramming and stem cell technologies to study and treat retinal diseases.
