Dr. Leigh, who trained in neurology at the University of
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Cornell Medical Center in New York, and the
Johns Hopkins Medical Center in Baltimore, has applied eye
movements to study a broad range of disorders affecting the brain,
eye, or ear during his career as a clinician-scientist. He has
served on review committees of the National Institutes of Health
and on the editorial boards of journals Annals of Neurology and
Neurology. His collaboration
of over 35 years with Dr. Zee has produced many joint publications
including five editions of the Neurology of Eye Movements.
Dr. Zee first came to Johns Hopkins in Baltimore in 1965 as a
medical student and then trained there in neurology after an
internal medicine internship at Cornell Medical Center in New York.
Both his research and clinical focus has been on eye movement and
vestibular disorders. He has had three sabbatical years at the
National Eye Institute in their Laboratory of Sensorimotor
Research. He first began working with Dr. Leigh in the late 1970s
when Dr. Leigh was at Hopkins as a fellow and then a
faulty member.
"Recognized as the standard text in the field since its first edition in 1983, this updated tome is an essential resource for anybody doing eye-movement-related applied or clinical research." --Optics and Photonics News
