Visual Processing

The Visual Processing and Retinal Neuromodulation SBMT Subcommittee focuses on research on retinal processing and its impact on modulation
of autonomic, endocrine and limbic functions, visual influence on movement and behavior (including mental health diagnoses), effect of delayed visual development in autism and other developmental disabilities, visual circuitry disruptions from autonomic dysregulation, concussions and other brain injuries, advancements in optical assessments, sensory integration, virtual augmented/mixed reality.

Delia Cabrera Debuc

Visual Processing and Retinal Modulation Subcommittee SBMT 2023-2024
Dr. Cabrera DeBuc’s laboratory research focuses on developing methods and algorithms to quantify pathological features and treatment-induced changes in patients with ocular and neurological diseases. The primary focus is to develop quantitative tools to improve ocular imaging and image processing analysis for clinical use as well as to identify novel imaging biomarkers of the onset and progression of ophthalmic and neurological diseases using advanced optical imaging (e.g., OCTA, LSFG, RFI, cSLO). The lab also has an interest in developing and translating low-cost multimodal approaches for eye screening integrated with telemedicine and artificial intelligence applications in primary care and community settings.
