Can Eye-Movements be Used to Diagnose Psychiatric Disorders?

Come and join us for an evening of discussions surrounding Mental Health research, care and services.

• Jane Sutherland, Lead Occupational Therapist, South West Community Mental Health Team

All questions/comments welcome whether specific to the eye-movement study or more broadly about aspects of mental health/mental health research in general.
