Funded Activity Summary

How we recognise the orientation of objects: a combined neurophyschological / eye movement study. Neurophyschological evidence suggests that different visual attributes of objects (e.g. shape vs orientation in space) are processed by independent brain systems. This project aims to investigate this issue systematically, using both neurological patients and normal volunteers. By using sensitive experimental measures, including detailed analyses of subject's eye movements while they view objects, this research will provide valuable insights into how the visual system gathers and encodes information about different object attributes.
