The Ghezzi Lab started in 2015 at EPFL in Lausanne (Switzerland) with the Medtronic Chair in Neuroengineering. Currently, the Ophthalmic and neural technologies laboratory is hosted at Hôpital ophtalmique Jules-Gonin – Fondation Asile des Aveugles in Lausanne (Switzerland).

We are a multidisciplinary laboratory bringing materials science, computer science, engineering, life science, and medicine together by the convergence of physicists, engineers, neuroscientists, and ophthalmologists cooperating to accomplish innovative projects.

Our mission is to develop innovative ophthalmic and neural technologies to better understand diseases and, eventually, improve the quality of life of people with ophthalmic and neural disorders. Ultimately, we aim at translating our research findings into clinical practice.
