The UK鈥檚 only Centre for Face Processing Disorders is located in BU鈥檚 Faculty of Science & Technology and is headed by Professor Sarah Bate.聽She specialises in the condition of prosopagnosia or 鈥榝ace blindness鈥� 鈥� the total inability to recognise faces.
One in 50 people is born with a form of prosopagnosia, but it can also be acquired following a head injury or stroke. Sufferers report feelings of anxiety and embarrassment, especially when they fail to recognise familiar people, such as family members or friends.
Research at 成人直播 is aiming to improve diagnostic methods and treatment 鈥� and public awareness of the condition 鈥� leading to a better quality of life for sufferers. In particular, Professor Bate is currently working on a pioneering programme to alleviate symptoms of the condition聽using a modified version of the board game 'Guess Who?'. We are seeking funding to purchase and modify versions of the game so they can be disseminated to sufferers around the world.
A donation of any amount will make a huge difference. Please contact us for more information or聽make a donation听辞苍濒颈苍别.
