    No full text
    Matt Eicheldinger, B.A. \u2709, M.A. \u2712 is an educator who used stories from his life to motivate his middle school students. When he found that not only were these stories effective, when written down, they inspired even the most reluctant of readers. This put Matt down a path of becoming a published author. In 2021, he launched a Kickstarter campaign to self-publish Matt Sprouts and The Curse of Ten Broken Toes. When the book became a hit, he was able to sign with an agent who quickly sold Matt Sprouts to a publisher. Matt shares how he became interested in being an educator, how he navigated the process of becoming a published author, and his future plans for more books

    Eyetracking-enhanced VEP for nystagmus

    No full text
    Visual evoked potential (VEP) testing is an essential first stage in the diagnostic workup of patients with infantile nystagmus (IN). VEPs are an important factor in the diagnosis of albinism, which accompanies IN in ~28% of cases, as well as chiasmal, optic nerve and neurometabolic disease that can all present with IN. VEPs are also used to assess prognostic visual ability in cases of retinal dystrophy and optic nerve disease. Despite being used regularly in those with IN, VEP testing requires patients to keep the eyes still; something that people with IN naturally cannot do. Fixation instability during VEP testing is believed to reduce VEP signal amplitude, and as a result, the reliability of VEP may be reduced in one of the patient groups that needs it the most. This study investigates whether VEP signal quality (amplitude) can be improved in people with IN, by triggering acquisition only during the foveating (slow) periods of the nystagmus waveform
