Recent developments in high-resolution imaging allow individual cells in the living eye to be studied at very high speeds. This project aims to explore a new class of scientific observations of rapid phenomena including: the capture and conversion of light energy to electrical energy, the spread of pressure waves through delicate networks of blood vessels, and fast eye movements used to navigate the visual scene. This project expects to generate new knowledge about these processes using state of the art technology, to reveal more about how the eye and visual system work. Our novel measures of physiological function will offer significant future benefit in the early diagnosis and treatment of disorders occurring at the cellular level.

高分辨率成像的最新发展允许以非常高的速度研究活体眼睛中的单个细胞。该项目旨在探索一类新的快速现象的科学观察，包括：光能的捕获和转换为电能，压力波通过精细的血管网络的传播，以及用于导航视觉场景的快速眼球运动。该项目预计将使用最先进的技术产生有关这些过程的新知识，以揭示更多关于眼睛和视觉系统如何工作的信息。我们的新的生理功能的措施将提供显着的未来利益在早期诊断和治疗发生在细胞水平的疾病。
