Corinna M. Bauer PhD

Dr. Bauer focuses her research on understanding how the visual dysfunctions observed in individuals with cerebral visual impairment (CVI) relate to brain structure and function. Following the completion of her doctoral studies at Boston University School of Medicine, she joined the Laboratory for Visual Neuroplasticity at Massachusetts Eye and Ear and Harvard Medical School for a postdoctoral fellowship investigating the neuroplastic changes in structural and functional connectivity that occur in individuals who are blind from congenital ocular causes.

In 2013, Dr. Bauer became an Instructor of Ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School and joined the research faculty in the Department of Ophthalmology at the Schepens Eye Research Institute of Massachusetts Eye and Ear. Her research implements multimodal neuroimaging techniques to determine the long-term developmental consequences of perinatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage and investigate the underlying neural correlates of the visual dysfunctions observed in adolescents and young adults with CVI.
