Microglia (white/green) are immune cells that live in specific layers in the retina.
In response to injury, they migrate into location of damage.

When alumnus Benjamín Castañeda returned to Peru, he found rural clinics lacking technicians or funding

Back at URochester as a professor, he's developing ultrasounds anyone can learn in 20 minutes
