Research participation opportunity in Cambridge

This study aims to look at how the brain behaves in response to changes in vision. There will be two visual examination tasks: one which involves a standard vision chart displayed on a computer screen and the second which involves a microperimetry exam to assess visual field sensitivity. There will also be two behavioral computerised tasks. All of the tasks have been approved and validated by the ethics committee as well as previous researchers who have used these methods. None of the tasks involve any risk and we are offering travel expenses of up to £50 per person to Cambridge. The research will take place at the Vision and Eye Research Institute at Young Street in Cambridge and the tasks should take no longer than 60 minutes. Only one visit will be required.
