34. Researcher Prospective “RefAware found a very recent paper for us that may be critical in shaping a new direction for a research initiative we’ve started…because this area is new for us, we were not extremely familiar with the relevant literature, and RefAware has been very helpful in getting us to speed quickly.” Randolph D. Glickman, Ph.D Senderhoff Professor of Vision Research, Dept. of Opthalmology, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio
