Well done to our PhD graduate @katietraan@UniMelbDOVS for her latest paper in press at Journal of Parkinson's disease, exploring potential retinal biomarkers at the microstructural and electrophysiological level, and in visual perception https://t.co/wnYm1MPL9I Co-authors ππ
Great start to the new year @katietraan ! Congratulations on publishing your second PhD paper. A great example of how eye electrophysiology can be used as a dynamic drug biomarker π π
Congratulations to @katietraan on her first #PhD publication! By showing elevated alpha-synuclein levels correlate with worse retinal function and neurodegeneration in photoreceptors this lays the foundation for retinal imaging as a Parkinsonβs biomarker https://t.co/5YUAuZ9Sfk
Optometry staff and students ready to raise funds to help people living with Parkinson's disease. Go team "Eyes on Parkinson's Research" #awalkinthepark#fightparkinsons
Ready to hear about some amazing research at the Melbourne School of Health Sciences Graduate Research Colloquium #MSHSReconnect2022#MSHS#WomeninScience
RESEARCH CALL β VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR EYE STUDY
Join our eye study being conducted @UniMelbMDHS & contribute to innovative research that aims to determine if retinal changes can be used as a biomarker for #Parkinsons. Please contact: [email protected] (@katietraan)
We've created a blog entry of the key findings from my paper without the scientific jargon & complex stats which you can read here: https://t.co/KZCSTRJU2Y π
We just published my first journal article with @NaturePortfolio in @SciReports! In the paper, we describe how eye function and structure are affected in a drug-induced mouse model of #parkinsonsdisease

Today is World Parkinson's Day. Did you know that 1 in 100 Australians over the age of 60 are affected? Our PhD student Katie Tran is developing new ocular biomarkers for PD, which may mean an eye test could help detect and monitor the condition in the future. Great work, Katie!
