Our lab members and wider research group presented latest findings from the REVAMP Study and associated projects at the #IPS2024 meeting, Cardiff (30 Jul - 2 Aug
2024). Oral & poster presentations by our group spanned basic psychophysics, clinical translation... thread🧵

In other overdue updates: after an amazing year (and a bit) with the Visual Neuroscience group at University of Nottingham, I have taken up a postdoctoral research associate position with the REVAMP study at the School of Optometry & Vision Sciences, Cardiff University

Excited to get started at @ecvp_ after having a great time with the @optivist1 meeting and warming up to Aberdeen!

[Kristian Skoczek @KristianSkoczek]

Had a great time at my first @VSSMtg getting to meet and chat science with such lovely folks. See you on the beach next time y'all!

[Kristian Skoczek @KristianSkoczek]

Should have shouted about it sooner, but I'm at VSS! My poster presentation was this morning, but if you'd like to hear about how the Magnocellular pathway modulates spatial vision, just ask!

I think the best thing I brought back with me from #ecvp2022 is the energy* and motivation** needed to get this thesis finished and submitted!
