AUDITORY CUES AND RESPONSE MODES MEDIATE PERIPHERAL VISUAL MISLOCALIZATION
… presentations of a pair of visual stimuli in retinal periphery, but not during synchronous presentations of stimuli. The current project is an investigation of how sound influences mislocalization of briefly presented peripheral stimuli. If the mechanism of mislocalization is an increased …

Multidimensional Approach to Comparative Avian Visual Systems
… method for characterizing quantitatively the retinal topography (e.g., variation in cell density across the retina) of different bird species in a standardized manner. Second, using this method, I established that retinal configuration has converged particularly in terrestrial vertebrates into …

Peripheral Dynamic Visual Acuity Under Randomized Tracking Task Difficulty, Target Velocities, and Direction of Target Presentation
Dynamic Visual Acuity (DVA) in the visual periphery has not been extensively studied. DVA is a measure of an observer's ability to resolve critical details in a target when there is relative motion between the target and the observer. This dissertation examined static and dynamic acuity in the …

Exploring retinal changes in Dementia and Multiple Sclerosis
Diagnosis and monitoring progression of neurodegenerative diseases relies on the assessment of clinical symptoms such as cognitive impairment in Alzheimer`s disease (AD) and disability in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Detection of molecular and morphological hallmarks in the brain or spinal cord is …
