Anupam Garg

Anupam Garg is currently a vitreoretinal surgery fellow in ophthalmology at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. At UCSD, Anupam was a medical and graduate student in the Medical Scientist Training (MD/PhD) Program and completed his PhD in Professor Ed Callaway's laboratory at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, followed by a residency in ophthalmology at the Wilmer Eye Institute. Within both medicine and science, Anupam's interests are closely related to understanding the function and mechanisms of the visual system. More specifically, he is interested in understanding the roles and mechanisms of various neuronal cell types and how they affect visual processing. He is hoping to utilize his training as a physician scientist to study the mechanism of retinal diseases.
