Neuroscience institute renovating building


The Steve Gleason Institute for Neuroscience is renovating a building on the WSU Spokane campus.  
Avista Development owns the building, which is located south of WSU Health Sciences, at 325 E. Sprague Ave. Avista leases it to the institute for a nominal fee, according to the WSU Health Sciences Spokane website.
The pandemic has slowed the renovation progress, but the building is nearing completion. Renovations started last summer, and should be finished in three to four months, said Andrea Lazarus, executive director of the Steve Gleason Institute for Neuroscience.
 
Upon completion, the building will be outfitted with specific technology to help people with neurodegenerative diseases. The institute will start accepting patients at the end of the summer, Lazarus said.

Students designed eye tracker testing rig


WSU engineering students are testing eye-tracking technology to improve the quality of life for people who have neurodegenerative diseases and no alternative way to communicate.
Last semester, the team was building a testing rig to evaluate eye trackers for their Capstone project, said Jon Campbell, project mentor and senior research software development engineer at Microsoft Research. An eye tracker is a camera that recognizes a face and follows a person’s eyes to monitor where they are looking.
Eye trackers are linked to a communication system or computer, but are not compatible with everyone, said Leif Harfst, WSU alumnus and former engineering student who worked on the project. For example, someone’s posture, skin color, eye color or movement characteristics may confuse the technology.
