Professor Camiel J. F. Bonn supervised a review article presenting the currently available options to manage retinitis pigmentosa (RP). RP causes a gradual loss of visual function due to the degeneration of photoreceptors, with an individual-specific clinical course that is hard to predict. Although...

Neurons are constantly performing complex calculations to process sensory information and infer the state of the environment. For example, to localize a sound or to recognize the direction of visual motion, individual neurons are thought to multiply two signals. However, how such a computation is...

By adapting techniques from the domain of artificial intelligence, such as deep learning, cognitive scientists from Osnabrück will study the core principles of human vision over the next five years. Professor Dr. Tim Kietzmann, who specializes in neuro-inspired Machine Learning, has been awarded the...

Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a complication of the retina brought about by diabetes, is one of the most frequent reasons for vision loss in European adults between 25 and 60 years of age. When detected early, treatment can effectively reduce or prevent vision loss. To date however, national screening...
