Research
Our technology and patented IP is based simply on the premise that eye movements of people with neurological disease differ significantly from healthy people. This conclusion is based on 10+ years of research from our inventors Dr. Stephen L. Macknik and Dr. Susana Martinez-Conde. Some of their published research is listed below with a URL link to the published work:
1. Distinctive features of microsaccades in Alzheimer’s disease and in mild cognitive impairment (Kapoula Z, Yang Q, Otero-Millan J, Xiao S, Macknik SL, Lang A, Erny M, Martinez-Conde S (2014) AGE; 36(2), 535-543)
2. Distinctive features of saccadic intrusions and microsaccades in progressive supranuclear palsy (OteroMillan J, Serra A, Leigh RJ , Troncoso XG, Macknik SL, Martinez-Conde S (2011) Journal of Neuroscience; 31(12): 4379-4387)
3. Saccades during attempted fixation in parkinsonian disorders and recessive ataxia: From microsaccades to square-wave jerks (Otero-Millan J, Schneider R, Leigh RJ, Macknik SL, Martinez-Conde S (2013) PLOS ONE)
4. The impact of microsaccades on vision: towards a unified theory of saccadic function (Martinez-Conde S, Otero-Millan J, Macknik SL (2013) Reviews Neuroscience; 14, 83-96)
5. Microsaccades: a neurophysiological analysis (Martinez-Conde S, Macknik SL, Troncoso XG & Hubel DH(2009) Neurosciences; 32, 463-475)
6. The Disturbance of Gaze in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP): Implications for Pathogenesis (Chen AL, Riley DE, King SA, Joshi AC, Serra A, Liao K, Cohen ML, Otero-Millan J, Martinez-Conde S, Strupp M, Leigh RJ (2010) Frontiers in Neuro-otology, 1:147)
