Fresh off the press 📣 Our new paper in Retina summarizes a normative database for CVI— a biomarker than can potentially be used as a screening tool for neurodegenerative diseases, retinal pathology, and more.
In the @RetinaJournal the iMIND team has shown that CVI is a durable metric across several demographic factors and presence of hypertension and/or cardiac disease. https://t.co/1sBAlcgC91

Thank you for the feature @DukeSurgery ! I’ve had so much fun co-leading the ASPIRES program with @RZasloff (MS2) Giussepe Yanez (MS3+) and Michael Mensah-Mamfo (MS2). Couldn’t do it without our faculty advisor @CoryJVatsaas

Very grateful for the opportunity to present a case to some amazing retina specialists in North Carolina! This meeting’s theme was cases that have stumped people, and I learned a lot about approaching rare and challenging cases!
