Project Description: In this project you will develop approaches for the early diagnosis of visual-field deficits, such as those caused by glaucoma. You will make use of experimental and theoretical techniques, such as sensorimotor analysis and Bayesian statistical modeling, to create diagnostic and screening approaches. As part of a multidisciplinary team of researchers, clinicians, and industry partners, you will validate your methods in relevant clinical populations.
Responsibilities: - Design, implement, and conduct sensorimotor experiments to collect data from healthy individuals and individuals with visual-field deficits or at risk of developing deficits.
- Develop & apply Bayesian statistical models for visual-field deficit detection.
- Collaborate with clinicians and industry partners to validate findings and translate research outcomes into clinical practice.
- Publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and present at relevant conferences.
