The inaugural Digital Health Technology Award goes to Associate Professor Angus Turner Lions Eye Institute - recognizing his team’s achievements in using AI to accurately detect eye disease in remote communities.

We've collaborated internationally with World Health Organization (WHO) to develop WHOEyes: a free smartphone app allowing people to test their short & long-distance vision & learn how to protect their eyes. Launched on #WorldSightDay , WHOEyes is available via Google Play & AppStore ow.ly/ZIot50PWjuv

Remarkable…this is a landmark paper in the field. Well worth your attention and a retweet! Kudos to Pearse Keane Mark Chia Yukun Zhou

Today we welcomed Greg Hunt to see our latest research. Peter van Wijngaarden shared his work developing an eye test to detect Alzheimer's disease, and A/Prof Lauren Ayton shared how new clinical trials could transform treatments for inherited retinal diseases. Thanks for visiting!

Such exciting news to share - my workplace Centre for Eye Research Australia has just been funded by a Breakthrough Victoria grant to support our world-leading clinical trials!

NHMRC Ideas Grants are the primary funding source for early to mid-career researchers & their work. However in 2022 the majority went to established, senior researchers. We need to fix this in the upcoming Federal Budget. Watch our new animation outlining this critical issue 👇

The eyes are a window into both health and disease.

Understanding neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer’s with non invasive imaging like Peter van Wijngaarden is doing, to proteinopathy work that Becca has done, and the microcircuitry work CLSigulinsky is doing.

Please please don’t think you’re bullet proof if you’ve been infected before. Far from it, please consider yourself as susceptible as anyone else no matter what your prior exposure. 1/

Dr Abera Saeed from Centre for Eye Research Australia is among 62 outstanding graduates who have received #NHMRC Postgraduate Scholarships starting in 2023. Congratulations, Dr Saeed! Find out more 👉 nhmrc.gov.au/about-us/news-…

Privileged to be part of AAMRI celebration of Victoria’s medical researchers at Parliament House last night and chat with Hon. Jaala Pulford about our #genetherapy research. A great showcase of the amazing breadth of research underway in our state A/Prof Lauren Ayton Peter van Wijngaarden

How can we use RNA targeting tools for ocular gene therapeutics? Our new review and my first collaboration at CERA Centre for Eye Research Australia after finishing my DPhil. Looking forward to some great eye research here in Aus! authors.elsevier.com/a/1fP5s4pAsjh4…

Great profile in Insight News of KeepSight, featuring our own Associate Professor Peter Van Wijngaarden, for #NationalDiabetesWeek . We're proud of what has been achieved in the last three years.

Wow, wow. This a must. If you're interested in knowing where you most need a mask (a P2/N95) this is a brilliant guide. Vaccines, testing and isolating if sick, and breathing clean air are the 3 key COVID-19 interventions. The last one is by far the most neglected.

Great lesson here.

Let’s be these kinds of academics. When one of us is struggling, we can all lend a hand to help each other succeed. Let’s not be the “eat your young” kind. “Be the change you want to see,” right?

Centre for Eye Research Australia A great explanation of the impact this development will have by Eleanor, and our own Dr Tom Edwards!

Last chance! Register now for the 2022 Gerard Crock Lecture this coming Thursday. Hear from Uni of Adelaide Prof. Robert Casson on treating the retina with low-energy light therapy. Free online event but registrations essential. bit.ly/3IxSiY4
