Dr Dominic ffytcheThe Charles Bonnet Syndrome Foundation (CBSF) is very fortunate to have arguably the world's leading authority on CBS, Dr Dominic ffytche of London, as our Patron.

Working at the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College, Dr ffytche specialises in perceptual disorders of the aged. He has been published in many academic journals over the past two decades. His research into the neuronal (brain) activity of CBS-affected individuals (as they encounter phantom images) is at the cutting edge of modern neuroscience. It is this work that is actually providing insights not only into the nature of CBS but also human perception per se.
