Research Bio
Dr. Hindman is interested in understanding the biological basis for corneal and ocular surface diseases and the impact of those disease processes on optical outcomes. She frequently collaborates with other scientists at the Flaum Eye Institute and the University of Rochester, many times incorporating the use of advanced imaging instrumentation developed at the University of Rochester. Her work is translational, spanning basic wet lab science, preclinical models, and clinical research.
