Leuchie is proud to have supported innovative neurological research this week, welcoming Cameron, a PhD researcher from the University of Edinburgh and the Advanced Care Research Centre (ACRC), to Leuchie House.

Cameron is researching how virtual reality headsets could be used to detect and measure visual inattention — a condition that can affect people living with neurological conditions.

Our guests were invited to take part in this cutting-edge research, trying on VR headsets and contributing first-hand to science that could make a real difference to people living with neurological conditions in the future

At Leuchie, we believe that partnerships like this are vital — connecting the people we support with research that could shape the future of neurological care.

If you’re working on research or technology projects relevant to people living with neurological conditions and would like to explore a partnership with Leuchie, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch with Tom, our Lead for Enabling Technology, at tom@leuchie.org.uk.
