Congratulations to our very own Dr Michael Crossland (Michael Crossland) for being awarded the The Neil Charman Medal for Research by The College of Optometrists for his outstanding patient-centred research into low vision, telerehabilitation and the accessibility of care.

1/12 Just published paper in Journal of Affective Disorders exploring the association between sociodemographic inequalities, COVID-related impacts & mental health. Co-authors: @PeterFonagy Rob Saunders Tessa Dekker & Georgia Milner (UCL Child Vision Lab) authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S01…

Thanks to everyone who took part in the UCL COVID Social Impacts Study, and thanks to Marc Tibber, @PeterFonagy & Rob Saunders, and CVL's Georgia M & TessaMarlijnDekker for their work on this important study.

Huge congratulations to our very own Roni Maimon Mor and Mahtab Farahbakhsh for winning the runner-up Research Excellence Award at the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology UCL IoO ECR! Great job!

We're thrilled for this week's #CVLTalk featuring Marc Himmelberg (NYU)! Join us this Thursday, July 6th at 2pm (UK time) as he presents his fascinating work on linking polar angle asymmetries in visual perception and neural architecture. Please DM us for the Zoom link!

Roni's (Roni Maimon Mor) excellent talk on "Neural Adaptations in Achromatopsia and It's Implications for Gene Therapy" at the 18th biennial Child Vision Research Society Meeting in London is generating a lot of interest! #CVRS2023

Brilliant talk by Michael Crossland at at #CVRS2023 on empowering children to measure their own vision! Mike, TessaMarlijnDekker, Annegret Dahlmann-Noor, and Pete Jones explored the feasibility of self-testing through telemedicine, opening up new possibilities for better accessibility and care!

Fascinating talk by the brilliant Georgia M at the 18th Biennial Meeting of the CVRS on the development of prior-knowledge-guided vision throughout childhood! #CVRS2023

A bit late, but we need to highlight the outstanding keynote delivered by TessaMarlijnDekker, honoring the remarkable life and contributions of the late Oliver Braddick, an absolute pioneer in infant vision research, closely connected to the history of the Child Vision Lab! #CVRS2023

Wow, check this out! Congratulations to @Maimon_roni and Georgia M for securing third and second place for their outstanding oral presentations at #CVRS2023! 🎉

Excited to share our latest paper in iScience journal with Matteo Lisi, @iris_groen & TessaMarlijnDekker We found profound differences in how children and adults can use prior knowledge to perceive hidden images ... cell.com/iscience/fullt… 1/6
