Natela Shanidze's Eye-Head Movement Lab currently has 2 postdoctoral fellows: Kate, who is examining how central vision loss affects spatial orientation & mobility & Christian, who is studying how noise exposure can impact balance in athletes. Learn more here: www.ski.org/labs/shanidz...

Adrien, a fellow in Dr. Preeti Verghese's lab, is studying the underlying mechanisms of binocular rivalry dynamics in amblyopia, & how abnormal dynamics can be used for amblyopia diagnosis. You can learn more about research in the Verghese lab on our website: ski.org/labs/verghes...

Steve Heinen’s lab studies eye movements to understand neural circuitry that moves the eyes for clear vision, & as a tool to develop non-invasive diagnosis & therapy for brain trauma & psychiatric disorders. Learn more here: www.ski.org/directory/st...ski.org/labs/heinen-...

Andrea is a visiting predoctoral fellow in James Coughlan’s lab where research is focused on developing & testing access technology for the blind and visually impaired using computer vision & other sensor technologies. Learn more about work in the Coughlan lab here www.ski.org/labs/coughla...

In the Teng lab, postdoc Haydée García-Lázaro is studying neural dynamics of echolocation combining psychophysics, ephys & computational techniques. Lab projects also include sensory processing during Braille reading & use of nonvisual cues for assistive tech. ski.org/labs/teng-lab
