five years ago there was a lady who came in my office University our lab at the
in my office University our lab at the
in my office University our lab at the Department of cognitive science and
Department of cognitive science and
Department of cognitive science and psychology and asked us to help her we
psychology and asked us to help her we
psychology and asked us to help her we were a little bit surprised because we
were a little bit surprised because we
were a little bit surprised because we have been doing at the time fundamental
have been doing at the time fundamental
have been doing at the time fundamental research using eye-tracking bio
research using eye-tracking bio
research using eye-tracking bio recordings and other type of devices but
recordings and other type of devices but
recordings and other type of devices but she said we are the only people in log
she said we are the only people in log
she said we are the only people in log area who knows something about eye
area who knows something about eye
area who knows something about eye tracking and so her son had cerebral
tracking and so her son had cerebral
tracking and so her son had cerebral palsy and cannot use his hand you know
palsy and cannot use his hand you know
palsy and cannot use his hand you know speak and she said you must help us
speak and she said you must help us
speak and she said you must help us because in Bulgaria nobody cares about
because in Bulgaria nobody cares about
because in Bulgaria nobody cares about it nobody knows about it so this
it nobody knows about it so this
it nobody knows about it so this actually changed our lives three years
actually changed our lives three years
actually changed our lives three years later when we founded the NGO which
later when we founded the NGO which
later when we founded the NGO which promotes and popularizes hydrating based
