"Limits of functional, diffraction-limited vision" -
Applied Vision Research Centre, City University,
London.
Postdoc or Research Assistant position (leading to a
PhD) is available immediately to study the "Limits of
functional, diffraction-limited vision with emphasis on
development of novel instrumentation and techniques to
separate the effects of scattered light and
aberrations". The aim of the project is to develop
and validate novel techniques for rapid objective
measurement of the scatter function of the eye with
emphasis on separating the effects of scattered light
and aberrations.
A number of psychophysical studies of visual
performance will also be carried out using a new
adaptive optics system constructed for this work. The
successful applicant will join another PhD student and
will be working in a team that includes John Barbur,
Chris Dainty, Chris Hull and Luis Santana Haro.
The clinical, psychophysical studies will also involve
Michael Morgan, Manfred Fahle and Roger Buckley. The
project provides skilled technical support with
development of optical instrumentation and specialised
programming. The position is open to either a postdoc
or a keen graduate with a good background in a
scientific or engineering discipline. Interest or
experience in retinal imaging, adaptive optics and /
or the measurement of scattered light in the eye would
be a distinct advantage. For more information and an
application form, prospective applicants are invited
to contact:
