I’m currently in Mbakaou, a village in southern Adamawa, visiting Alex’s post for the very first time (finally!!!) to collaborate a project with him.
Alex and I both have been stargazing for the past two nights. It’s been a few years since I have been in a countryside where I could see stars. Even though I can’t see stars as well as those with normal vision, I was still very relieved to be able to still see them even though most of them were very very dim. But as long as we keep funding the research for a cure for vision loss, I am sure that I will regain the vision to see the stars very well again one day.
More details to come on Alex and my collaboration project and life in Mbakaou.
