Separate processing of texture and form in the ventral stream: evidence from fMRI and visual agnosia (2009)
Journal Article
Cavina-Pratesi, C., Kentridge, R., Heywood, C., & Milner, A. (2010). Separate processing of texture and form in the ventral stream: evidence from fMRI and visual agnosia. Cerebral Cortex, 20(2), 433-446. https://doi.org/10.1093/cercor/bhp111

Real-life visual object recognition requires the processing of more than just geometric (shape, size, and orientation) properties. Surface properties such as color and texture are equally important, particularly for providing information about the ma...

Is that within reach? fMRI reveals that the human superior parieto-occipital cortex encodes objects reachable by the hand (2009)
Journal Article
Gallivan, J., Cavina-Pratesi, C., & Culham, J. (2009). Is that within reach? fMRI reveals that the human superior parieto-occipital cortex encodes objects reachable by the hand. Journal of Neuroscience, 29(14), 4381-4391. https://doi.org/10.1523/jneurosci.0377-09.2009

Macaque neurophysiology and human neuropsychology results suggest that parietal cortex encodes a unique representation of space within reach of the arm. Here, we used slow event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate whet...

Impaired grasping in a patient with optic ataxia: Primary visuomotor deficit or secondary consequence of misreaching? (2009)
Journal Article
Cavina-Pratesi, C., Ietswaart, M., Humphreys, G. W., Lestou, V., & David Milner, A. (2010). Impaired grasping in a patient with optic ataxia: Primary visuomotor deficit or secondary consequence of misreaching?. Neuropsychologia, 48(1), 226-234. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2009.09.008

Optic ataxia is defined as a spatial impairment of visually guided reaching, but it is typically accompanied by other visuomotor difficulties, notably a failure to scale the handgrip appropriately while reaching to grasp an object. This impaired gras... Read More about Impaired grasping in a patient with optic ataxia: Primary visuomotor deficit or secondary consequence of misreaching?.
