The Richard Wilson Essay Prize 2026
The Nystagmus Network is pleased to launch the essay competition in memory of our former chairman, the late Richard Wilson OBE, who did so much to push the boundaries of nystagmus research in the UK and ensured the charity invested as much as possible in nystagmus research studies.
Now in its third year, the competition seeks to encourage students and early career researchers to pursue an interest in nystagmus.
