EVI – European Vision Institute

http://www.europeanvisioninstitute.org

The aim of EVI is to devise and implement programs and projects for new therapeutic strategies for eye diseases that are difficult or impossible to treat currently. Its approach will incorporate the most recent scientific developments of the postgenomic area. EVI is targeted towards the more immediate policy objectives of improving the competitiveness of European research by assembling the leading institutions (with partners) from industry and academia.

EVI integrates, conducts and supports research that helps to prevent and treat eye diseases and other disorders of vision. This research leads to sight-saving treatments, reduces visual impairment and blindness, and improves the quality of life for people of all ages.

AIBILI is a founding member of EVI since 2003 together with 3 other research institutes from Tübingen, Paris and London.

EVI main office is located in Brussels and the Branch Office at AIBILI, in Coimbra, Portugal is responsible for the Clinical Research area.
