Stimulus Funding Helps K-State Biochemist Study Eye's Lens In Diabetes, Galactosemia Patients
Thanks to a grant awarded through federal stimulus research funding, a Kansas State University biochemist has more funding for research that could eventually help diabetics preserve their eyesight. Dolores Takemoto, a K-State professor of biochemistry, received more than $366,000 from the National Eye Institute to study how a particular enzyme affects the lens.
