Research interests

Dr Jamieson is an expert in the clinical genetics assessment of patients with ocular disorders, molecular genetic techniques and the analysis of mouse models of human disease whose research has led to insight to the genetic bases of hereditary cataracts, glaucoma and microphthalmia.

Her research has led to insight to the genetic bases of hereditary cataracts, glaucoma and microphthalmia.
