Do you have hemianopia or know someone with hemianopia (visual field loss to the same side in both eyes)? Please consider completing our survey (paper copies also available by post/email); https://t.co/KUVuYjRNSQ

Really interesting work looking at the relationship between vision and motor function in unilateral cerebral palsy. Congratulations @CrottiMonica and team!

[Monica Crotti @CrottiMonica]

Very happy to share that our article on the relation between visual functions, functional vision, and bimanual function in children with unilateral cerebral palsy is now available in the journal Research in Developmental Disabilities!👁️Check it out at https://t.co/1KHN1yelum

Calling GOSH patients! Do you enjoy creating? Have a passion for drawing, painting, or making digital artwork?

If you’re over 12 and interested in helping us improve our website services for young people, we’d love to see your ideas. 🎨

@joguerrero0726 @GoshSight @Eye_Journal Hi Josie - I will DM you! We are in London but have lots of great colleagues in America.

A fun afternoon teaching @GoshSight about how we use pattern VEPs to look for evidence of Homonymous hemianopia in children. Read more in our open access review in @Eye_Journal https://t.co/OUNUVtYWQK

For families looking for more information on dorsal and ventral streams check out @CVISociety and @scotlandcvi websites.

[The HHIC Project @HHICProject]

Really interesting work from
@vayzenberg90 and colleagues - examining the plasticity of the child’s visual system after hemispherectomy and dorsal Vs ventral pathway 🤓🧠 thanks for the flag @lolaeyedoc

[Vlad Ayzenberg @vayzenberg90]

Now out in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience!

Here we examined the degree to which dorsal and ventral visual pathways can functionally reorganize after children have half of their brain surgically removed (!!)

Meet Aaliyah 🏅She recently took part in a worldwide clinical #research trial here at GOSH, led by Professor Darren Hargrave, after she was diagnosed with a rare and inoperable brain tumour. 3 months on from treatment, Aaliyah's tumour has shrunk: https://t.co/zq2yWtt79k

Feeling very lucky to be learning new skills @ucl #CASC, even wrote code and it worked! All to analyse the data from our brilliant HHIC participants.

[Dr Kathleen Vancleef @katvancleef]

You only have a few minutes to screen for neglect or visual inattention. What do you do? @CAOT_ACE @AOTAInc
Go for a cancellation task like the ❤️ one from the Oxford Cognitive Screen.
