WELCOME TO GEIS!

 

The Strabos Institute Study Group (GEIS) was created to discuss scientific papers and consequently to promote the dissemination of knowledge.

Key publications from the most influential authors in strabology are presented in essence and commented by the Strabos Institute specialists, objectively and clearly, on an online space where all participants are able to offer their opinions and ask questions.

Each author is studied for 6 months.

The GEIS gathers on the last Tuesday of each month, from 7:15 to 9:50 PM. During each meeting, around 15 papers are presented and discussed. On the 6th month, the author will be present to answer questions and clarify doubts. Attendees will have access to the discussed papers in advance, directly on the study platform (EAD Box).

 

3rd AUTHOR (FEDERICO VELEZ)

The third author to have his works studied and discussed will be Dr. Federico Velez – United States.
