Baltimore, MD, USA

The Ultra-low Vision Lab in the Lions Vision Research and Rehabilitation Center (the Low Vision Division of the Wilmer Eye Institute) is looking for a postdoctoral fellow.

Over the past decade, we developed measurement tools for prosthetic and ultra-low vision: the ULV-VFQ questionnaire and performance measures in both the real world and virtual reality. Under a new phase of the same R01, we are now expanding the range of the questionnaire and VR performance measures to cover a more moderate range of visual impairment, roughly 20/50 - 20/800.

Basic Qualifications

  • PhD in vision science, computer science, or a related field

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in use of patient-reported outcomes, visual performance testing, and/or VR test development in Unity would be highly desirable, but not a condition

Salary & Pay Range

JHU stipend and other conditions of employment are on par with or exceed NIH NRSA norms. The position is annually renewable for up to 4 years.

Benefits

The ULV lab is part of an enthusiastic group of clinicians and researchers from diverse national and disciplinary backgrounds, within a highly collaborative, world-class ophthalmology department. For further information please contact Gislin Dagnelie
