Research Vetted by NIH and NSF

We completed a 30 patient proof-of-concept study which demonstrated that eye-tracking could be used to detect the subtlest seizure type, absence seizures.

Detecting Absence Seizures using Eye-tracking (DASEY):  We have completed an in-depth clinical study supported by an NIH Phase 1 SBIR Grant involving 4 Level 4 Epilepsy Centers to analyze ictal eye-movement data and develop algorithms.

Supported by an NSF Phase 1 SBIR Grant we analyzed interictal eye-movement data and were able to show a correlation to subjects having active seizures. 

We have been awarded an NIH SBIR Phase I grant to compare the accuracy of 3 epileptologists reading a smartphone video recording during hyperventilation to 3 epileptologists reading the corresponding video EEG during hyperventilation.  We are currently recruiting for this study.  More information can be found here.  

We have been awarded an SBIR Phase II grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for assessing comorbidities (e.g. attention and mood) in epilepsy using eye movement recordings.  We are currently recruiting for this study.  More information can be found here.
