Clinical trials: Visual Cortical Plasticity, open to volunteers
Blindness
Sensory Substitution and Brain Plasticity Following Vision Loss
The goal of this clinical investigation is to learn how the brain responds when visual information is converted into patterns of sound or touch in blind and sighted participants.
