Great news from Neuralink!!! Hope for millions!!! #sightseeing #Neuralink #Ophthalmology #MedTwitter

The Blindsight device from Neuralink will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see.

Provided the visual cortex is intact, it will even enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time.

To set expectations correctly, the vision will be at first be low resolution, like Atari graphics, but eventually it has the potential be better than natural vision and enable you to see in infrared, ultraviolet or even radar wavelengths, like Geordi La Forge.

Much appreciated, @US_FDA!

ChatGPT is not suitable for academic research (even when connected to the internet). It creates fake citations to papers that don't exist.

Instead, use Elicit — an app designed for academics.

Ask it a question and it'll give you a summary of top four (real) published papers:

New study constructs scores for predicting risk of moderate-to-severe and muscle-predominant types of Graves’ orbitopathy (GO) based on initial ophthalmic findings using machine learning.

*** Dear IMG research volunteers ***

We all understand you want to get some research experience and would like to have that help towards residency match. Many of us have been there. It is difficult to find a spot as we only have so much space/time.
