The role of oscillatory brain activity in object processing and figure-ground segmentation in human vision (2011)
Journal Article

The perception of an object as a single entity within a visual scene requires that its features are bound together and segregated from the background and/or other objects. Here, we used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to assess the hypothesis that coher...

Cortical oscillatory activity associated with the perception of illusory and real visual contours (2009)
Journal Article

We used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to examine the nature of oscillatory brain rhythms when passively viewing both illusory and real visual contours. Three stimuli were employed: a Kanizsa triangle; a Kanizsa triangle with a real triangular contour...

Dorsal stream associations with orthographic and phonological processing (2006)
Journal Article

Several studies have indicated a key role for dorsal stream processing in lexical decoding. To examine this relationship further, performance on orthographic and phonological reading tests was compared with both steady-state visual evoked potentials...

Comment on letter to the editor: Magnocellular reading and dyslexia (2005)
Journal Article

Magnocellular mediated visual-spatial attention and reading ability (2004)
Journal Article

This study explores the relationship between attentional processing mediated by visual magnocellular (MC) processing and reading ability. Reading ability in a group of primary school children was compared to performance on a visual cued coherent moti...

Can the magnocellular pathway read? Evidence from studies of color (2003)
Journal Article

A review of the neurophysiological literature suggests that the magnocellular pathway has adequate spatial-frequency and contrast sensitivity to perceive text under normal contrast conditions (>10%) and also is suppressed by red light. Results from t... Read More about Can the magnocellular pathway read? Evidence from studies of color.
