Dr. Stefater receives vitreoretinal scholarship
James “Tony” Stefater, MD, PhD, a vitreoretinal fellow at Mass. Eye and Ear, received the 2017 Vitreoretinal Research Scholarship from the Robert Machemer Foundation in the amount of $20,000 over one year. His winning project, “Development of a novel post-operative intraocular retinal tamponade...
New preprint (Loh et al.): Mixed model association for biobank-scale data sets
Biobank-based genome-wide association studies are enabling exciting insights in complex trait genetics, but much uncertainty remains over best practices for optimizing statistical power and computational efficiency in GWAS while controlling confounders. Here, we introduce a much faster version of...
Santiago Delgado-Tirado receives Alfonso Martin Escudero Foundation Fellowship
Santiago Delgado-Tirado, MD, MSc, a research fellow under the mentorship of Joseph Arboleda-Velasquez, MD, PhD, and Leo Kim, MD, PhD, received the Alfonso Martin Escudero Foundation Fellowship. This fellowship, which is in the amount of $88,500 over two years beginning in January 2018, was given for...
Research
The developing brain dramatically rewires in response to the external world during early ‘critical periods’, but this capacity diminishes with adulthood. A clear advantage of time-limited critical periods is that the developing brain circuits are assembled to represent the relevant aspects of our...

Circuitry and Plasticity of Auditory Cortex
Our unique perception of the acoustic world evolves with experience throughout our lifespan. As neuroscientists we believe that perceptual differences in hearing, including pathological perturbations of our ability to accurately perceive our sensory environment, partly arise from variable circuitry...
