[Open Research Europe @OpenResearch_EU]

Co-authors of a new #MethodArticle introduce a more efficient and cost effective way of assessing optokinetic responses of Zebrafish, in turn aiding our understanding of vision and blindness in humans.

Zebrafish are used to investigate the biology of vision to aid understanding of eye diseases, drug delivery & cancer.

@Alicia_GS7 and Yolanda Alvarez explore a new method helping to assess visual activity in a more effective and affordable way.

When "smoke gets in your eyes" issue is not the tears "you cannot hide", but Macular Degeneration, Cataracts, Optic Nerve Damage and other severe #EyeDisease
We are working on different models that confirm it.

@YolandaAVA @ORBITAL_ITN @NadiaToffoletto @MSCActions @HorizonEU @REA_research @istecnico @YolandaAVA It's actually currently being done..by changing the IOL design however, not by releasing drug. Check this out...https://t.co/Y1XuIBj4E2

When a optometrist goes to a zebrafish lab, amazing things happen, like she develops methods to assess visual acuity & contrast sensitivity in the fish. Proudly published in @OpenResearch_EU

[Ocular Pharmacology @OPGG_UCD]

For the past 2 days, we have had our students extremely busy in the lab! Yesterday we worked with zebrafish models of inherited blindness, and behavioural assays used to test vision. We also showed how some of the compounds we work with in the lab can restore visual function 🐟

[Ocular Pharmacology @OPGG_UCD]

To kick off day 2 of the Inherited Blindness Summer School, we are absolutely delighted to have @PhDWithLaura from the Farrar lab in Trinity College Dublin talking to us about her research journey so far, and the Genetics of Inherited Blindness 👁👩‍🔬
