Henry C. Chang studies the cell biology of eye and tissue development using the fruit fly (Drosophila) as a model organism. His work examines how cells build and maintain structures like the retina, including tension-bearing scaffolds, calcium signaling, protein transport into mitochondria, and DNA damage responses, with implications for understanding aging and tissue morphogenesis. This research is basic biological science aimed at understanding fundamental cell mechanisms rather than direct clinical application.
Publication output has been modest and somewhat irregular over the last decade, with a peak around 2020-2021 followed by a slowdown in more recent years.
