From David Goldfield, Blindness Assistive Technology Specialist:

The National Research and Training Center on Blindness and Low Vision at Mississippi State University (NRTC) is recruiting people with blindness or low vision (age 21+) who are working or are interested in working to be part of a multi-year study about technology in the workplace. Participants will complete multiple surveys over time so they can learn about changes in access technology use. Participants will receive a small gift card after completing each survey. The NRTC will share our findings with you and their technology company partners. They’ll also make recommendations for access technology users, VR professionals, access technology specialists, and employers. Would you like to help with their 5-year study? Complete their pre-screening survey or call 662-325-2001 to schedule an appointment for a telephone screening.
