Laboratory for Ophthalmic Image Analysis (OPTIMA) is an
interdisciplinary research lab composed of retinal specialists,
computer scientists and software engineers, developing innovative
image analysis methods for precision medicine in retinal disease.
Our research focus lies on the quantitative analysis of
state-of-the-art ophthalmic imaging data, in particular OCT, and
the development of prognostic disease models for improved patient
management in leading eye diseases. The lab has access to
extremely large sets of ophthalmic images and is well-equipped
with a dedicated high-performance computing cluster containing the
latest generation GPUs. The group keeps close collaboration with
several high-performance academic research institutions, as well
as partnership with imaging device and pharmaceutical companies.</p>
