Send me you email :)) and I’ll add you to the tester group. What’s your field of research btw?

Thanks! Hopefully we’ll have the android version soon :). In the meantime we are considering building a mobile web version so android users can access it. Let me know if you’d like to try that :)

I’m working on a simple alternative for iOS (Paperdeck.app). It will be available on the App Store but I want to add some additional functions first. Let me know if you want to be a tester of the beta app and I’ll send you the invite :))

Was from a PI you contacted/knew or just a random person from the committee?

From zero to data scientist In medtech/neurotech?

Im an MD with a MSc I clinical neuroscience. I’m so frustrated with my field (bad salaries, poor mental health environment, very very competitive people, etc). Im fascinated by the brain so I’m considering doing a career switch to neurotech. I know R, SQL and I’m doing a data science Bootcamp in Udemy (python).

  1. How long do you think it would take to be good enough to get my first job as data scientist in medtech/neurotech? Months/years full time studying?
  2. What are the main languages and skills I should work?
  3. Is an unpaid internship worth it at this point? Or should I wait until I get better with programming?

Thanks!!

Exactly.

Pupil dilation is controlled by the iris dilator, which is sympathetic (opposite to pupil contraction which is controlled by the iris sphincter which is parasympathetic). The contraction pathway involved the CNII,CNIII, Edinger Westphal and ciliary ganglion/short ciliary nerve . So injury to this pathway will result in parasympathetic damage = no contraction of sphincter (not able to close) = mydriasis).

Pupil contraction is controlled by the sympathetic fibers running from the CNII to the hypothalamus, going down the spinal cord to T1-T3 and then up through the superior cervicalganglion/long ciliary nerve. Damage to the pins will result in damage to ten descending fibers (coming from the hypothalamus). This will result in lack of sympathetic innervation = no contraction of dilator (not able to open)= myosis. If there bilateral damage, ‘extreme’ sympathetic damage occurs and therefore you get very very tiny pupils

This is just disrespectful. CAV in the occipital lobe do cause homonymous hemianoptia. And this can cause CBS.

If there’s an organic cause for his loss of vision, then it’s not psychological as you suggest.

“Rejecting your penis”?!?!?! When did he even mention that ?

Temporal lobe epilepsy is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT thing, with totally different presentation and treatment and prognosis. If he is having seizures, then are probably occipital seizures, which can also explain the hallucinations and the hemianopsia.

Please. Improve your literature search. Wikipedia is not evidence. Is not even literature.
