The eyes are a window into both health and disease. Understanding neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimerโs with non invasive imaging like Peter van Wijngaarden is doing, to proteinopathy work that Becca has done, and the microcircuitry work CLSigulinsky is doing.
Such exciting news to share - my workplace Centre for Eye Research Australia has just been funded by a Breakthrough Victoria grant to support our world-leading clinical trials!
Today we welcomed Greg Hunt to see our latest research. Peter van Wijngaarden shared his work developing an eye test to detect Alzheimer's disease, and A/Prof Lauren Ayton shared how new clinical trials could transform treatments for inherited retinal diseases. Thanks for visiting!
Remarkableโฆthis is a landmark paper in the field. Well worth your attention and a retweet! Kudos to Pearse Keane Mark Chia Yukun Zhou
We've collaborated internationally with World Health Organization (WHO) to develop WHOEyes: a free smartphone app allowing people to test their short & long-distance vision & learn how to protect their eyes.
