Effects of complete monocular deprivation in visuo-spatial memory.

30 Sep 2008 Monocular deprivation has been associated with both specific deficits and enhancements in visual perception and processing. In this study, performance on a visuo-spatial memory task was compared in congenitally... Read more...

Unsupervised natural experience rapidly alters invariant object representation in visual cortex.

12 Sep 2008 Object recognition is challenging because each object produces myriad retinal images. Responses of neurons from the inferior temporal cortex (IT) are selective to different objects, yet tolerant ("invariant") to changes... Read more...

Rapid approach responses to alcohol cues in heavy drinkers.

Sep 2008 Incentive-motivational models of addiction predict that alcohol cues should elicit approach behaviours in heavy drinkers. In this study we compared heavy and light social drinkers' response latencies when required to... Read more...
